The Juventus Stadium ( officially Allianz Stadium since July 2017 due to a name sponsorship ) is a football stadium in the Italian city ​​of Turin . The Italian soccer record champion Juventus Turin owns and plays his home games there. It currently offers 41,507 spectators and is supported by the UEFA in the category 4 filed.

The Juventus Stadium opened on September 8, 2011 in the north of Turin. It was built on the site on which the former Stadio delle Alpi was located from 1990 to 2009 . The most striking feature of the new stadium are the two 86 meter high pillars on the north and south sides behind the goals. They carry the roof structure via steel cables.

history

The then managing director of Juventus Jean-Claude Blanc presented in January 2007 a new plan for an arena with 41,000 seats, with construction costs of around 105 million euros . The entire project should be linked to the award of the 2012 European Football Championship to Italy. On April 18, 2007, UEFA decided to host the 2012 European Championship in Poland and Ukraine . Nevertheless, the association published the final plan for the new building in November 2008. Hernando Suarez and Gino Zavanella were hired as architects.

Since its completion, the entire complex has housed the new stadium with 41,000 seats, an entertainment center with several restaurants and shops, and 4,000 parking spaces. The construction costs for the new home of Juventus amounted to 155 million euros.

From the 2006/07 season, Juventus and local rivals FC Turin played their home games in the Stadio Olimpico , the converted Stadio Comunale . After the renovation of the delle Alpi , the Olimpico was renamed Stadio Grande Torino and has since been the sole home of FC Turin.

The Juventus Stadium opened on September 8, 2011. For the first game, Juventus played against the English club Notts County , the oldest professional football club in the world, from which Juventus Turin took over the white and black striped jerseys in 1903. The two teams separated 1: 1; Juventus' striker Luca Toni scored the first goal in the stadium . He converted a penalty previously missed by Fabio Quagliarella in margin. Three days later, the first competitive game was on the second match Serie A instead. In the 4-1 win against FC Parma , the Swiss Stephan Lichtsteiner scored the first goal in the new arena in a competitive game.

The 2013/14 UEFA Europa League final took place on May 14, 2014 at the Juventus Stadium.

On July 1, 2017, the stadium was renamed "Allianz Stadium", the German insurance group is the name sponsor for six seasons until June 30, 2023 . In February 2020, the partners agreed to extend the sponsorship contract until 2030. The new contract begins on July 1, 2023. The insurer will pay Juve a total of 103.1 million euros at the previously agreed amounts. In addition, the alliance will be visible on Turin’s training and warm-up clothing and sponsor the women's team .

On March 2, 2020, UEFA awarded the 2021/22 UEFA Women's Champions League final to Turin with the Juventus Stadium. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects, the final of the UEFA Women's Champions League 2022/23 will be played.

Walk of Fame (Cammino delle stelle)

Following the example of the Hollywood Walk of Fame , 50 deserving players from the history of Juventus were honored with a star in the stadium. An internal commission made a pre-selection in 2009. Club and fan club members then selected the 50 players from a list of over 100 players. In the first selection, the Dutchman Edgar Davids was not among the selected players. There were massive protests by fans who would rather see Davids than the Pole Zbigniew Boniek among the honored athletes. A second election was then scheduled in early 2010. Of the total of 12,655 votes cast, Edgar Davids received 7,401 votes (58.48%). Boniek followed well behind with 659 votes (5.21%) and Michael Laudrup in third place with 512 votes (4.05%).
