Juventus has reportedly decided to retain manager Luciano Spalletti for the long term, prioritizing stability despite a four-match winless run and a heavy Champions League defeat to Galatasaray.
Juventus is set to stand by manager Luciano Spalletti regardless of how the current campaign concludes.
The club’s board remains convinced by the structural improvements made since Spalletti replaced Igor Tudor in late 2025, viewing him as a central figure for a multi-year rebuild.
Even with a recent dip in form that has left the Bianconeri fifth in Serie A, the hierarchy plans to provide significant backing in the upcoming summer transfer window.
The “Emperor” of Italian coaching faces immediate pressure to arrest a slide that saw Juventus concede 13 goals in just four matches, including a humbling 5-2 loss in Istanbul.
“We need to analyze the situation correctly and objectively, using this pain as a springboard,” Spalletti stated ahead of Saturday’s clash with Como.
With Champions League qualification hanging in the balance, the club is banking on his veteran experience to navigate a defensive crisis following injuries to key players like Bremer and Dean Huijsen.
