July 11th, the Milan Sports Daily reported that Juventus will appoint former Monza executive François Modesto as technical director.

After a recent careful evaluation of the other two candidates Javier Ribalta and the current Genoa transfer manager Marco Ottolini, the Zebra Legion finally chose the candidate who will enter the new management vision.

Modesto is well versed in the Italian transfer market and is known for his data-driven working model during his tenure at Monza, which is the key factor that Comoli believes can help Juventus' new cycle. This Frenchman played for Cagliari's first team and youth team at the turn of the century, and has a deep understanding of Italian football. Before joining Monza, he started his management career in Greece's Olympiacos and worked as a transfer consultant to join Premier League teams such as Nottingham Forest. These experiences are related to the diversified industrial map of Greek shipping tycoon Evangelos Marinakis.

In recent years, Modesto has also had an affair with Rome (it is reported that it has also provided assistance to Gisolfi, who is also a Corsica department) and Milan. Now he is about to officially enter Turin and become the core of management, and report directly to General Manager Comoli.

Finally, MiTi said that Juventus' sports director candidate will be announced later.
