About Juventus
Juventus History
Juventus FC is a big name not only in Italian football but also a big name in world football. The dream club of many upcoming young footballers was started by a group of Torinese students in the year 1897. Juventus was called Sport-club Juventus when it was formed but it changed its name to Juventus when the club made its Serie A debut. The club is owned by the industrial Agnelli family since 1923.
Juventus FC is the second oldest active club of Italy with the oldest being Genoa (formed in 1893). Juve have been consistent and have never relegated to Serie B except for the year 2006 when Juventus were among the five clubs linked to the Italian Football Scandal of 2006. They were also stripped off the 2005 Serie A title.
Juventus are the most successful Italian club and have experienced some great victories. The biggest victory was when they crushed Cento by 15-0 in the year 1926-27. Juventus faced a tough time in early 1910s when they suffered their worst defeat at the hands of Torino in the year 1913.
Juventus Logo
Juventus logo consists of two ‘J’ in capital written in different fonts with a little gap between them such that the combination of both the ‘J’ also looks like a J. The background of the J written in black is white or vice versa. Both black and white are the signature colors of the old lady.
The previous logo of Juventus was an oval shield with black and white stripes having three black and two white stripes. The new logo was presented in January 2017 by Andrea Agnelli with the statement that it represents “the Juventus way of living”. It is believed that the logo was changed to make Juventus look like a bigger brand while the previous logo made it look like a sports club.

OLD- Juventus is the second oldest club of italy and it believes in having old and experienced players as a part of the team above the aggressive youth.
LADY- The Bianoccerni fans are believed to love the club in the same way as a man loves his lady, therefore, it is termed as the lady.
and hence the nickname 'old lady'.
What are Juventus fans called ?
Juventus fans are often called as Drughi Bianconeri which means Black and White Droogs. This name is inspired by Beethoven loving Alex and his juvenile delinquent cohorts named Droogs.
