The Long Lost Link Between FIAT and Bianconeri

Well, First of FIAT (Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino) or (Italian Automobile factory of Turin) is an automobile giant based in Turin. Yes, the same place where the Bianconeri ply their trade in Serie-A.
FIAT was founded in 1899 by Giovanni Agnelli along with a group of investors. His stake in FIAT which he bought for 400 US $ is worth Billions now. History apart, the Agnelli family have taken over the presidency of the Bianconeri in 1923, which constitutes the oldest sporting partnership in Italy, thus making Juventus the first professional club in the country.

Over time, the club has become a symbol of the nation's culture due to their tradition of success, some of which have had a significant impact in Italian society, especially in the 1930s and the first postwar decade and the ideological politics and socio-economic origin of the club's sympathizers. This is reflected, among others, in the club's contribution to the national team, uninterrupted since the second half of 1920s and recognised as one of the most influential in international football, having performed a decisive role in the World Cup triumphs ​​of 1934, 1982 and 2006. The club's fan base is larger than any other Italian football club and is one of the largest world-wide. Support for Juventus is widespread throughout the country and abroad, mainly in countries with a significant presence of Italian immigrants.


The club seems to be progressing well under Andrea Agnelli, the last Agnelli male. Ever since their promotion back to Serie-A, the club has always found the backing of Agnelli family, be it the funds required to build their new stadium or acquisition of new talent. This season, they have financed the deals of Vidal and Vučinić who are quite proving to be decisive in the title chase. Hope Juve win their 30th Scudetto and the 3rd STAR is in the way :D

FORZA JUVENTUS \m/
