Now for the number one player in Juventus history we have forward Alessandro Del Piero. He is without a doubt one of the most beloved and iconic figures in Bianconeri history. He’s renowned for his skill, loyalty, and elegance on the pitch. He joined The Old Lady in 1993 from Padova and spent 19 amazing seasons with Juve, becoming their all-time leading scorer with 290 goals in 705 appearances.
Del Piero was nicknamed “Il Pinturicchio” for his artistic style of play, and was a master of free kicks, a creative playmaker, and a clinical finisher. He helped Juventus win six Serie A titles, a UEFA Champions League title in 1996, a Coppa Italia, and an Intercontinental Cup. His performances in the 1997–98 season, where he was the Champions League top scorer, solidified his reputation as one of Europe’s finest players.
Del Piero’s loyalty was unmatched, staying with Juventus during their 2006 relegation to Serie B following the Calciopoli scandal. As captain, he led the team back to Serie A, further endearing himself to fans.
He departed Juventus in 2012 as their longest-serving player and a symbol of excellence. Beyond trophies, Del Piero is celebrated for his sportsmanship, humility, and deep connection with the club, earning his place as one of football’s true legends.
Do you agree with our top pick?
There are other players like Zinedine Zidane that could have easily made this list, but he was left off for the fact that he didn’t play for the Bianconeri as long as the players that made out list. He would have certainly a top-10 list along with guys like Edgar Davids. Look out for a top-10 list at some point in the future.
