The incident occurred as they arrived for today’s Derby della Mole against Torino at the Stadio Olimpico.
At least one window on the bus was shattered, while it’s reported fireworks were rolled under the vehicle for a loud explosion.
“It was certainly a serious and deplorable act of violence, sparked also by journalists who use a certain language against us and that naturally leads to these consequences,” director Marotta told Sky Sport Italia.
“You just had to read a comment in a well-known newspaper today that dubbed us ‘thieves’ to know where this comes from.”
Max Allegri rotates the squad after the Champions League quarter-final against Monaco.
“We are always fired up and know every game represents an exam. Our opponents always give everything to beat us, let alone a local derby with pride and prestige at stake.
“Torino are unbeaten in four and are in good shape. We’ve made some changes to the line-up today, but those taking the field are absolutely worthy of the Juventus jersey.”
