The Bianconeri Appoint Ex- Italian National Team Head Coach the Experienced Gaffer
The Old Lady have appointed ex- Italian national team head coach Luciano Spalletti to lead the team until the end of the season.
The 66-year-old steps in for Igor Tudor, who was let go after the Serie A side's defeat by Lazio recently.
Tudor arrived at the club in March as Thiago Motta's replacement but left after seven months following a string of eight matches without a victory.
Spalletti guided Napoli to the Serie A crown in 2022-23 then moving on to lead the Italian national team, which missed out on the 2022 World Cup during Roberto Mancini's tenure.
He helped them qualify for Euro 2024 but were eliminated in the round of 16 by Switzerland.
However, Spalletti was sacked by Italy in June post a qualifying defeat against Norway, with the Azzurri at risk of missing out on a third consecutive World Cup.
He has previously coached Inter Milan, Roma, and Udinese in Italy's top flight and secured two Russian Premier League titles with Zenit St Petersburg.
Massimo Brambilla served as interim manager for Juventus during the 3-1 victory over Udinese on Wednesday 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.
