Ciao, Totò.
Ciao, Totò.
Ciao, Totò.

We immediately fell in love with Totò.

His desire, his story, his being so wonderfully passionate, and it showed in every game he played.

We at Juve were lucky enough to get excited about him before, in that incredible summer of 1990, the whole of Italy did, captivated by those wonderfully energetic celebrations of his.

Because Totò arrived at Juve in 1989, and in that season he scored 15 goals in the league, four in the UEFA Cup and two in the Coppa Italia. Numbers that earned him the Azzurri shirt in the Italian World Cup, which - also thanks to him - became what we all remember as those ‘Magical Nights’.

Top scorer in the competition and, with the national team, third, for an immense collective dream only stopped by those penalty kicks in Naples.

His Juventus story went on for another two years, until 1992, making 132 appearances and scoring 36 goals - thirty-six of those magnificent strikes that we now watch over with a lump in our throats.

Ciao, Totò.

Thank you.
