Juventus, taken the Brazilian Adonias Fonseca. He will be the official freestyler

TURIN – Even if it won’t be an added value for Allegri’s team, Adonias Fonseca promises to change the face of Juventus all the same. The Brazilian is in fact the first freestyler of the Juventus club, a virtuoso of the ball capable of leaving those who observe him speechless while he literally does what he wants with the ball. It was he who triumphed in the first Juventus Freestyle challenge, which ended on Friday afternoon at the Allianz Stadium and broadcast live on TikTok. Five freestylers from all over the world and evaluated by exceptional judges: Pogba, Fagioli and Huijsen.

Life-changing victory

The freestyle phenomenon is now a reality and has grown exponentially since some juggler performed on the street or in front of friends. Today, advertising contracts, international competitions and the general public also come with social media: Fonseca, for example, can count on a fan base of over 4 million fans on social media. He seized the opportunity presented to him by participating in the “final battle” at the Allianz Stadium alongside England’s Ben Nuttall, Hungary’s Javi Zoltan Liptak, France’s Yoanna Dallier and Spain’s Javier Sanz Aguilar. To triumph was Adonias, who snatched a triple “10” in the final exhibition. From today he joins the Juventus team and will produce content for the club’s social networks.

The opportunity seized on the fly

Adonias Fonseca, 28, from Mirai near Rio de Janeiro, discovered the contest via TikTok. He didn’t think about it for a moment, given the uniqueness of this initiative for the whole world of football, and won: “It’s an honor for me to be part of Juventus – he declared after the victory -, a dream that comes true and I promise that I will give my best to make Juventus fans happy. This is the opportunity of my life and I have no words to thank whoever gave me this opportunity. I can’t wait to make some amazing content for Juventus social media and I hope the fans can accept me as a true black and white.” It could not be otherwise, given the spectacularity of his plays that literally leave you speechless. Adonias has thus ripped up a one-year contract with Juventus and will be involved throughout the next sports season for engagement activities that will make him a protagonist on the club’s social channels.
