Washington DC: What began as a routine visit by Juventus Football Club to the White House took an awkward turn when US President Donald Trump posed unexpected questions to the players.

During their meeting, Trump asked members of the Italian club’s men’s squad, “Could a woman make your team? If you were being nice...” The question, posed with a smirk, visibly unsettled several players and officials present. The Juventus squad is in the United States for the ongoing Club World Cup.

The moment, caught on camera, has since gone viral online, sparking criticism and debate over the appropriateness of such remarks during an official event. While the team maintained composure, the exchange drew attention for shifting the focus from football diplomacy to gender politics.

Juventus has not made an official comment on the incident, but the clip continues to circulate widely on social media platforms.
