When asked about Conte's potential return to Juventus, Platini said, "Antonio Conte is a highly respected coach and a champion of Italy." However, he emphasized that the team's success depends on having good players. "I think it's crucial for Juventus to have talented players if they want to win," he added.

Platini also emphasized the importance of players in shaping a club's history. "Coaches can be great, but it's the players who write the history of a team," he said.

At the 20th Vialli and Mauro Golf Cup, Platini was also asked if he would consider returning to Juventus. He humbly replied, "I'm flattered that people still think of me after 40 years. I didn't think about it because no one contacted me."
