If there is one outfield footballer who embodies the spirit of Juventus, it just has to be Alessandro Del Piero.

In all, he spent 19 years in service to the Old Lady, sticking with them through good times and bad – he famously remained an integral squad member following their demotion to Serie B as a result of the Calciopoli scandal.

Claiming 17 major honours during his career with the club, where he started out at the Primavera side following a move from Padova,his legacy still stands out today.

Their all-time top scorer, Del Piero bagged 290 goals for Juve in 740 matches.

Fittingly, he managed to rattle the back of the net in his final appearance for the club, scoring against Atalanta before being substituted so that he could soak up the adoring cheers and thanks of the fans on a well-deserved lap of honour.
