Juventus players were unexpectedly invited to the Oval Office for a meeting with US President Donald Trump, where the discussion veered into topics such as the Civil War and the Middle East crisis. Juventus star Timothy Weah described the experience as 'weird' and unexpected, as the team was preparing for a Club World Cup match in Washington DC.

Instead of focusing on football, Trump discussed issues like a potential attack on Iran, the US Civil War, travel bans, and transgender athletes. The meeting lasted 16 minutes and included Juventus officials and players, as well as FIFA president Gianni Infantino.

Weah expressed his surprise at the political nature of the meeting, stating that he just wanted to play football. Despite the unique experience of being in the White House, he found it unexciting due to the political discussions. Trump also interacted with the American players in the team, highlighting them and asking about the inclusion of women in the squad.

The conversation shifted to the Middle East crisis, with Trump expressing his concerns about the situation. He also mentioned his views on the US Civil War and his plans for dealing with Iran. Throughout the meeting, Juventus players stood behind Trump as he addressed various topics.
