Damien Comolli has been appointed as Juventus' new general manager and has decided to keep Igor Tudor as manager for the upcoming season. Comolli, previously president of Toulouse, emphasizes the importance of establishing a strong identity for the club. At his press conference, he discussed his approach to roster construction, the role of data in decision-making, and the future direction of Juventus. He believes that integrating data analysis can aid decisions in an increasingly complex football landscape, and he aims to create a competitive team identity.
Identity is fundamental in the current sports industry. We are in the entertainment business, and it is important to create a strong identity. The 'moneyball' model aims to rationalize a very irrational industry like football.
This model has helped me make the right, considered choices, based on careful evaluation. We shouldn’t be afraid of this association between data and football.
