Juventus Sacks Igor Tudor, Installs Brambilla as Interim as Spalletti Leads Successor Search

Damien Comolli is fast-tracking a replacement following eight winless matches, including four without a goal.

Overview

  • Juventus confirmed Igor Tudor's dismissal after the loss to Lazio, ending a run of three straight defeats and eight matches without a victory.
  • Next Gen coach Massimo Brambilla will serve as caretaker for Wednesday’s match against Udinese.
  • Multiple outlets report Luciano Spalletti is the leading candidate, with a meeting with Comolli scheduled today and a short-term deal to June floated with an automatic extension if Champions League qualification is secured.
  • Roberto Mancini and Raffaele Palladino are also being considered, while Thiago Motta remains under contract and is cited as a possible option.
  • The move consolidates Comolli’s role in decision-making and highlights deeper issues flagged by analysts, including a misfiring attack, frequent coaching changes, and pressure to stabilize league and Champions League campaigns.
