In contrast, Juventus had under their employment the best foreigners then ... Michel Platini & Zbigniew Boniek.

AC Milan finally realised the way to go was dutch ... so by the late 80s, they got Marco van Basten, Ruud Gullit & Frank Rijkard. They never looked back after that.
To compete, the other half of Milan engaged Lothar Matthaues, Juergen Klinsmann & Andreas Brehme.
bro u left out liam brady thou he was irish,the only reason they did not renew is contract is cos of platini,brady was a legend with juve,back then they had a quota for foreign players.
