🔗 Share this article The Turin Giants Bring In Previous Italy Boss Luciano Spalletti Juventus have appointed ex- Azzurri head coach Luciano Spalletti as their manager until the end of the season. The experienced coach steps in for the Croatian manager, who was sacked post the Lazio setback on Sunday. Tudor had joined the club in March as Thiago Motta's replacement but exited following a seven-month stint after an eight-game winless streak. Spalletti guided Napoli to the Serie A crown in 2022-23 then moving on to lead the Italian national team, after the team's failure to reach the 2022 World Cup during Roberto Mancini's tenure. He secured their spot in Euro 2024 exiting in the last 16 stage against Switzerland. However, Spalletti was sacked by Italy in June after a World Cup qualifying defeat by Norway, as Italy faced the possibility of not making a third World Cup in a row. Spalletti has also managed Inter Milan, Roma and Udinese in Serie A and won the Russian Premier League twice with Zenit St Petersburg. Massimo Brambilla served as interim manager for Juventus in the midweek 3-1 triumph over Udinese moving them to seventh position in the league - six points behind leaders Napoli after nine games. In the Champions League, they sit 25th in the league phase, having lost once and drawn twice in their opening three matches.
