Ciro Immobile, who once turned up for Juventus, is a prolific goal-scorer and can instil fear into the hearts of the meanest of defences.

The striker clinched the European Golden Boot last season for his blistering exploits with Lazio, netting 36 league goals from 37 games.

But things haven't always been this rosy for him. Immobile was once overlooked as a promising young teenager at Juventus, where he started his professional career.

Despite impressing in a few loan spells, he was restricted to just five league appearances with the Bianconeri before then-manager Antonio Conte sold him off to Genoa in 2012 on a permanent transfer.


#2 Filippo Inzaghi

The former striking great is most fondly remembered for his exploits with AC Milan, where he lifted numerous trophies during an illustrious decade-long spell.

However, Filippo Inzaghi represented a few other Italian sides as well before setting foot at the San Siro, one of them being Juventus.

His four-year stint with the Bianconeri from 1997 to 2001 is largely forgotten, but Inzaghi enjoyed a very productive spell. In 165 games, he struck 89 times and helped Juventus to three trophies, including the league in his first season.


#1 Zlatan Ibrahimovic

The Calciopoli scandal ended Zlatan Ibrahimovic's time with Juventus after just two years at the club.

An evergreen journeyman with a storied career, Zlatan Ibrahimovic was once a Juventus player, something not many people may remember.

Arriving from Ajax in 2004, the Swede was in Turin for just two years but enjoyed plenty of success. He made 92 appearances for Juventus in all competitions, scoring 26 times, while also clinching the Scudetto in both seasons.

However, the Bianconeri were stripped of their 2006 title following the infamous Calciopoli scandal and relegated to Serie B. That prompted Ibrahimovic to seek pastures anew. He arrived at Inter Milan that summer to continue his top-flight adventure.
