In fact, Nedved's return is something Juventus has planned long ago. Even before Nedved retired, the then de facto leader of the club had reached a consensus with Nedved: after he retired and rested for a while, when he personally thought the time was ripe, he would return to the club to take up a management position. According to informed sources, Nedved originally planned to wait another year, that is, to return to Juventus at the end of 2011, but due to Juventus' current poor state and many urgent improvements and expansions needed in the club, Nedved returned ahead of schedule under Juventus' advice. With the enhancement of Juventus' senior management team, the team's strength will also be further improved. Last summer, despite a large number of purchases, the team's lineup still has obvious defects, especially the terrible defense that made Juventus suffer greatly at the start. In order to reverse this trend, Juventus plans to make a move again in the winter transfer market. According to "All Sports", those currently rumored to be linked with Juventus include Adebayor, the Togo striker from Manchester City, Tashche, the German international from Stuttgart, and Sirigu, the goalkeeper from Palermo. These three players are all forces that Juventus' current lineup urgently needs to supplement. Tashche's arrival can solve the problem of depth on Juventus' center-back bench, and Sirigu is Buffon's future successor. As for Adebayor, although Juventus has two main strikers, Amauri and Aquilani's health and form have always been unstable, so Adebayor is expected to solve the team's goal-scoring problems.

On December 12th local Italian time, Juventus officially announced that Pavel Nedved was nominated as a director and member of the management team of Juventus. However, this decision will not take effect until the shareholders' meeting on the 27th of this month, after voting. Regarding this return to Juventus, Nedved showed full confidence. Nedved previously said in an interview with a TV station: "Obviously, I am very familiar with everything here. Many important moments in my life were spent here. I love everything here, whether it's the fans or the players. I have deep feelings for them, and these are all the motivation and basis for my future efforts."

When Juventus reorganized its top management last summer, there were rumors that former Juventus legend Pavel Nedved would return to the club to take up a key management position. Although Nedved did not return to Juventus over the summer, in the hearts of Juventus fans, the God of War is the hope for the team's revival. Now, in the upcoming shareholders' meeting of Juventus, club chairman Andrea Agnelli will nominate four people, including Nedved and Marotta, to become new members of the board of directors. It is almost certain that the God of War will return to Juventus.

Due to the large investments over the past two seasons failing to bring good results, neither commercial revenue nor on-field operations were ideal. Before the end of last season, Juventus' board of directors made major changes to the club's management. The Agnelli family regained control, and Andrea Agnelli, upon taking office, emphasized expanding the board of directors, increasing the original seven members to eleven, which included former Juventus captain Pavel Nedved and current club general manager Marotta.

Regarding his future role and responsibilities, Nedved said: "I am not yet clear about specific matters, and currently the board of directors still needs to vote. What I want to say is, no matter what work it is, I hope to help Juventus return to its peak." In the eyes of outsiders, the vote is just a formality. It is almost certain that Nedved and Marotta will join the board of directors. After entering the management, Nedved may first focus on Juventus' youth training, and he will also work with Marotta to plan strategies for Juventus' transfer operations.
