Incoming Juventus coach Luciano Spalletti
Juventus are on the verge of appointing Luciano Spalletti as their new head coach following the dismissal of Igor Tudor earlier this week. Multiple reputable sources, including Reuters and Sky Sport Italia, report that the experienced Italian tactician has reached a verbal agreement with the club.
According to reports, Spalletti’s deal will run until June 2026, with an option for an additional year depending on the team’s qualification for the UEFA Champions League. The 65-year-old is expected to bring his trademark attacking philosophy to Turin, aiming to restore Juventus’ domestic dominance and European competitiveness.
The former Napoli and Inter Milan boss has been Juventus’ top target since Tudor’s sacking after a string of poor results. Negotiations reportedly progressed swiftly, with both parties agreeing on key contractual terms earlier this week.
An official announcement from Juventus is anticipated within days, with Italian media suggesting it could come before the club’s upcoming Serie A fixture against Udinese. Spalletti’s appointment marks a significant managerial coup for the Turin giants as they look to rebuild under a proven Serie A title-winning coach.
