Juventus to Open Talks on New Spalletti Deal as Board Reaffirms Backing

Talks are planned next week to reinforce continuity after the Champions League exit.

Overview

  • Juventus directors are set to meet Luciano Spalletti next week to begin negotiating a new contract, according to Football Italia citing Tuttosport.
  • Giorgio Chiellini told Sky Italia the club wants Spalletti to continue beyond 2025-26, a stance CEO Damien Comolli also underlined at the Financial Times Football Summit.
  • Reports indicate Spalletti seeks project guarantees rather than salary terms, including a major signing in each department dependent on the budget and European qualification.
  • Chiellini signaled openness to a new Dusan Vlahovic deal, with the striker expected to return to full training next week after three months out and talks shaped by a reported €7m wage ceiling.
  • Juventus have secured Kenan Yildiz on new terms and are reported to have an agreement to extend Weston McKennie, with an announcement expected after the Roma match.
