Also Marcello Lippi and Alessandro Del Piero wanted to remember Avvocato Gianni Agnelli.

Marcello Lippi: "I really became fond of him and I think that it was a mutual feeling. We are obviously sad now but were were already since we had known he was ill. I remember that he would have liked to see the third "star" on the bianconera shirt: he'll surely do it from Heaven"

Alessandro Del Piero "It's a very sad day for all of us. He was a person with great ability in judging situations and understanding the football world, being a real expert in that. Juventus and Ferrari were his huge passions but the whole Italy will miss this man of extraordinary class. My nickname Pinturicchio? I remember with joy that episode, along with many other memories. He was always attentive to everything and often I received his early morning calls. I've always been astonished by his ability in surprising everyone in all the situations, as he was so capable of giving reasons for reflecting".
