John Elkann To Become Juventus President In 2009?

Cobolli Gigli's contract as the president of the Bianconeri will expire next summer and Elkann wants to take his place.

The Agnelli family could return officially at the top of the Juventus empire from 2009 as Giovanni Cobolli Gigli's contract with the Old Lady will come at an end in June.

John Elkann has in fact always been very close to the Bianconeri and according to Cronaca Qui, the scenario of seeing an Agnelli family member as president of the club is very realistic at this point.

If this was the case, then Elkan would be the fourth Agnelli to become president of Juventus, following Edoardo, Gianni and Umberto Agnelli.

Even his brother, Lapo Elkann could find space in the Old Lady's ranks as a director, considering his enthusiasm and love for the famous black and white colours.

Cobolli Gigli took over the presidency of the club following the Calciopoli scandal and since then the Agnelli family have been working hard to give back to Juventus the image of a much cleaner club.

Do you think Cobolli Gigli should continue as president of the club? Or should the Agnelli family take back the club? Do you agree with John Elkann as president? Let us know!
