Chiellini bids farewell to Juventus: "Juve was everything for me."

Giorgio Chiellini wrote a very long message in which he greets Juventus and its fans.

"The day has come. Tonight a whirlwind of emotions will pass through me.

Juve was everything for me. My youth, experience, maturity. The will to win, the joy of triumph, the acceptance of defeat. The thrill of the challenge, the duel on the pitch, my head always bandaged. And then the champions, on and off the green lawn, the coaches, the managers, all the staff ... Men who have passed by always leaving me something. Something that I have taken care to collect, preserve and cherish.

Three. My number. But also the sensations that now coexist in my soul.

JOY, for an adventure that ended like this, for having realized every dream, imaginable or not, and to remain forever in the history of this great club.

SERENITY, to choose the right moment to say goodbye, to leave again at a level that is appropriate to what I have been, to have shared so many values and emotions that no one will ever be able to cancel.

GRATITUDE, for all of Juventus, for the Agnelli family who have adopted me all these years, for my dearest loved ones and for all the people I love, without whom I would not be the person I am now, because they are have been an inexhaustible source of support and energy and have always accompanied me on this long journey.

So I find myself in front of the most beautiful of sunsets, trying to imagine a new dawn. Because the journey does not end. I still don't know what awaits me next. But it will be another time and another story. This, on the other hand, is the time for greetings and for infinite and profound gratitude.

Thanks.

Thanks to everyone, to the fans and opponents.

Thank you for welcoming me, putting up with me, supporting me.

Thank you for making sense of the meaning of the word dream.

Thanks, until the end, thanks. "
