Summary
During summer club legend Forward Giampiero Boniperti is retired after 15 seasons, also, Head coach Renato Cesarini left the club, and Agnelli appointed Carlo Parola as manager.
Since 22 January 1961 President Agnelli had appointed Gunnar Gren as technical director, and during summer the Swedish is handling the first training sessions just until 7 September 1961,[1] when he returned to Sweden due to family issues. Then, Agnelli appointed his replacement Július Korostelev as new technical director.

After a disastrous league season, on 23 May 1962 head coach Carlo Parola is injured and replaced by Július Korostelev.[4]
Meanwhile, in the European Cup the squad reached the semifinals for the first time ever against Real Madrid even with a won match at Santiago Bernabéu thanks to a goal of Sívori being the first defeat ever as local for the Spanish club in the Continental tournament since 1955. in front of a massive 130,000 attendance.[5][6] However, the team lost the tie-breaker match 3 - 1 at Parc des Princes a week later.
Also, the squad was eliminated in semifinals of Coppa by SPAL with a 1–4 score.
At the end of the season, Welsh Forward John Charles left the club and he was transferred out to Leeds United.
The aftermath of the Trio magique was a difficult time for the Juventus fans despite Omar Sívori scored 15 goals during the campaign which saw the club finishing in a chaotic 12th spot in Serie A.[7][8][9]
