European Super League pioneer quits after failing to convince Liverpool to perform U-turn

Juventus president and European Super League instigator Andrea Agnelli has resigned from his position at the Italian giants along with a number of other board members.

The Serie A giants have confirmed that Agnelli and the entirety of the board, including former Ballon d'Or winner Pavel Nedved, have stepped down from their positions with immediate effect due to legal investigations surrounding the club's transfer activity still ongoing.

A statement released by the club said: "Furthermore, the members of the Board of Directors, considering the centrality and relevance of the pending legal and technical-accounting issues, have deemed it in the best social interest to recommend that Juventus adopt a new Board of Directors to address these issues."
