Agnelli: Clubs need to reflect on mono- and duopolistic league tendencies
Getty Images | Juventus chairman Andrea Agnelli has called for reflection on the dominance of one or two clubs in some European leagues.
In a speech to Juventus' shareholders, the club's chairman, Andrea Agnelli, said the monopoly and duopoly of teams in certain leagues are creating domestic tension and called for reflection on how future competitions will be managed.
Agnelli also spoke out on the club's recent capital increase, heavily criticised domestically, and said Juventus needed to benchmark themselves against European competitors - not Italian.
Juventus' low reliance on TV rights bodes well for the club's future, he continued, claiming the Italian giants were taking back ownership of their content.
