Since the arrival of Igor Tudor last March, Juventus has operated a spectacular metamorphosis. Passed from 8ᵉ to 4ᵉ Place in Serie A, the Vecchia Signora approaches qualification in the Champions League. In the shadows, management is working on a structuring decision for the future of the club … without revealing its cards.
According to the Stampa, Juventus is preparing to formalize an agreement extending the Igor Tudor contract until June 2026. A reward for the Croatian coach, named temporary after the dismissal of Thiago Motta. Despite rumors binding Antonio Conte (ex-coach) on a return, the club has decided: Tudor now embodies the project.
Tudor, the man of the situation?
In 3 games, Tudor straightened the bar: 2 victory and 1 draw, and a reinforced defense (only 2 goals conceded). Its impact on players like Federico Chiesa or Kenan Yıldız seduced the direction, which salutes its “Flexible tactical approach and its leadership”. A striking contrast with the Motta era, marked by internal tensions.
Tale discarded, Tudor confirmed
Despite Antonio Conte's media attraction, Juventus preferred stability. The Italian technician, stationed in Naples, was not “Not priority”according to sources close to the club. An assumed decision, while the former OM coach benefits from the support of the locker room and supporters.
This extension is accompanied by clear objectives: secure 4ᵉ place in Serie A, then target the Scudetto in 2025/2026. Management also hopes that Tudor, renowned for his work to develop young people, will integrate talents from the training center. A daring bet … but calculated.
