Former Juventus coach Gigi Maifredi claims Luciano Moggi was on the precipice of signing Cristiano Ronaldo and Steven Gerrard while he was a director at the club. The Italian also believes Calciopoli was invented to ruin the success enjoyed by the Bianconeri.
Maifredi was coach during the early 1990's and after years in the shadows, he has emerged with some striking revelations.
"Calciopoli? It's best to put a veil over this. But let me tell you this, Moggi and [Antonio] Giraudo had already bought Gerrard and Cristiano Ronaldo," Maifredi told RadioErre2 programme "Tutti Pazzi Per La Juve".
"The foundations for a Bianconeri dominion had been laid down and it would have lasted for at least 20 years. Instead certain people invented a scandal in order to kill such a strong team."
Maifredi was then keen to turn his attention to matters closer to home as Juventus struggle domestically and in Europe. The former Bianconeri tactician believes the club was wrong to offer the role to Ciro Ferrara. He suggests Ferrara has to go in order to rediscover success.
"Ferrara was a great player, but I don't think he was ready for the Juventus job. I think it was wrong to bring him in for the future as Juventus play to win instantly. You cannot wait around for success here," he added.
"Comparing this to my old Juve I can see that they are missing a coach who is right for such a competent and succesful club.
"If I was in Ferrara's place we would be ahead of Inter with such a great squad."
