It's been a while since the rumor is circulating, it's now official! Thiago Motta is no longer the coach of Juventus! Turin management has formalized the news in a press release published on its website: “” Juventus announces that Thiago Motta has been dismissed from its functions as coach of the male first team. The club thanks Thiago Motta and all its employees for the professionalism they have shown and for the work accomplished in recent months with passion and dedication, wishing them the best for the future. »»
The Italian's passage on the old lady's bench was not as promising as it is waiting for. Engaged at the head of Juve last summer, the former PSG player will not have held a season. While the club occupies fifth place in Serie A, has been eliminated from the Champions League and is no longer in the running in the Italian Cup, the record of Thiago Motta is much more than mixed, thus pushing its leaders to make a radical decision.
Igor Tudor arrives on the bench of Juventus
Faced with the emergency, the Italian club isted no time! In the same statement which announces the dismissal of Thiago Motta, Juventus announces the arrival of Igor Tudor at the head of the club:
“” Juventus also announces that it has entrusted the management of the first male team to Igor Tudor, who will run the first training session tomorrow. »»
Igor Tudor's experience convinced Turin leaders to hire him. Having led several clubs in Serie A (Udinese, Hellas Verona and lately Lazio), he knows the Italian championship and has the experience necessary to try to straighten Juventus at the end of the season. The objective is therefore clear for the former OM coach: trying to tear a qualification for the next Champions League, finishing in the first four of Serie A.
