Juventus President Andrea Agnelli insists it’s time to forget last season’s success. “We now have to aim for new targets.”
The Old Lady won the Scudetto by going unbeaten, while they finished as runners-up to Napoli in the Italian Cup.
“We set out on a journey two years ago when we almost completely revamped the team,” Agnelli told Sky Sport Italia.
“Now we've achieved success and we proved ourselves again in Beijing by deservedly winning the Super Cup [against Napoli].
“But we must realign our sights on the next targets. Our Serie A and Super Cup triumphs are in the past now – we have to move on.”
Juve will again be battling for the title domestically, but La Signora will also be facing the prospect of Champions League football again.
“We set out to win every competition we enter,” he continued. “There will be other pretenders to the same crowns, both at home and abroad, but this squad can hold its own.
“In Italy we'll be aiming for a repeat of last season and in Europe we must believe that we can dream again.
“I have a good feeling about the coming season.”
It will be a different kind of campaign for the Bianconeri though seeing as nobody will wear the No 10 shirt following the departure of Alessandro Del Piero.
“The No 10 is a heavy shirt,” Agnelli noted. “It's a shirt worn by great players. Alessandro was a great player, as were Roberto Baggio, Michel Platini and Omar Sivori.
“Unlike in the past, there's no obligation to field a No 10 nowadays. But when the time is right somebody will wear it again.”
