OM‍: Longoria betrayed, Igor Tudor one step away from Juventus‍!

His departure from OM being recorded, Igor Tudor could bounce back to Juventus Turin, in the event of Massimiliano Allegri’s dismissal.

Present Thursday at a press conference two days before the trip from Olympique de Marseille to Ajaccio, Igor Tudor formalized his departure. Present alongside President Pablo Longoria, the Croatian coach said he was leaving Marseille for private and professional reasons. The former Hellas Verona coach, however, made it clear that he had no agreement with another club at the moment.

“I made this decision for private and personal reasons. I’m not leaving because I have a deal with another club or I had a fight with someone.” promised Igor Tudor in front of the media. Should we believe it? The doubt is very present because the interest of Juventus Turin for the future former coach of Olympique de Marseille is very real. In its edition of the day, Tuttosport also devotes its front page to the Croatian, big favorite to occupy the bench of Juventus Turin next season and who took “a step” towards the Italian club by announcing his departure from Marseille on Thursday.

Tudor big favorite for Juventus bench

For the Italian media, Igor Tudor has a 25% chance of joining Juventus Turin next season against 30% for Massimiliano Allegri, 20% for Thiago Motta and 15% for Sergio Conceiçao. Suffice to say that by announcing his departure from OM on Thursday, Igor Tudor knew exactly what he was doing. The Croatian wants to establish himself as the big favorite to succeed “Max” Allegri. Still, for the time being, the departure of the Italian technician is not yet a certainty at Juve. Igor Tudor is therefore playing Russian roulette at the risk of having lost OM and not being called upon to coach the Old Lady. The Croat would then have lost everything…
