Juventus’ GM Discusses Coaching Transition
Commitment to New Coach
Juventus General Manager Damien Comolli revealed that the team will approach the upcoming season under the guidance of new head coach Luciano Spalletti. During a press conference today, Comolli confirmed that Spalletti has been signed on a contract that will last until the end of the current season.
Future Collaboration
Comolli emphasized, “Spalletti’s contract allows for just one season, specifically for the 2026-27 campaign. Future decisions will hinge on our collaborative efforts.”
Coaching Change Rationale
When questioned about the decision to part ways with previous coach Igor Tudor, Comolli elaborated on the reasoning behind the move. He stated, “The results have not met our expectations. Our goal in changing Tudor was to halt this cycle of disappointing performances. Continuing in this manner simply wasn’t an option, and it became clear on Monday that a change was necessary. Ultimately, we believed Spalletti was the right choice.”
