Del Piero was signed by Juventus having initially been turned down by Milan. In his first full start for Juventus he scored a hat-trick against Parma. The following season he established himself in the first team in attack alongside Gianluca Vialli and Fabrizio Ravanelli in Juventus' Championship winning side. So impressive were his performances Juventus sold fan favourite Roberto Baggio to Milan, Juve had found his successor.

Del Piero played a bit part in Juventus' European Cup final triumph and gave mixed performances as Juventus made and lost two successive finals. The European Cup final aside Del Piero was outstanding in the 1997-1998 season. He formed a devastating partnership alongside Filippo Inzaghi and scored a career best 21 goals. Any doubts as to how important Del Piero was to Juventus (many claimed Zidane was their key player) were answered the following season. Del Piero missed five months with a knee injury, Juve sunk without trace from first place to sixth.

The Euro 2000 final will haunt Del Piero for the rest of his life. With Italy leading France 1-0 Del Piero missed two guilt edge chances to make the game safe. France equalised deep into injury time before Trezeguet, who would ironically had already agreed to join Juventus that summer, scored the winner.

Despite continued domestic success Del Piero was disappointing for Italy in their ill fated and somewhat embarrassing 2002 World Cup campaign and also gave another insipid performance as Juve suffered the ignominy of losing a third successive European Cup final.

A tremendously gifted player renowned for scoring spectacular goals and his dead ball delivery.
