Juventus have reached an agreement with Luciano Spalletti, who is expected to become the club's new coach in the coming hours, according to information from the Gazzetta dello Sport. The former Italy coach agreed with the Turin leaders on a contract running until June 2026, with an automatic extension clause in the event of qualification for the next Champions League. The formalization is expected in the coming hours, while Spalletti is expected today in Turin to finalize his signing.
This choice marks Juventus' desire to turn the page after the Igor Tudor era, in a difficult sporting context (0 victories in the last 8 matches). Giorgio Chiellini would have played a key role in the decision, seeing in Spalletti the ideal profile to relaunch the bianconero project and restore stability to a workforce losing confidence. Currently, Juve is in 8th place in Serie A, and will be keen to get back on track this evening against Udinese.
