he future of Juventus is yet to be written and much will depend on this season’s results. Thiago Motta, chosen to lead the rebuild and bring the Bianconeri back to title contention, is confirmed for now, but a failure to finish in the top four could be a game-changer. In that case, the club could opt for a coach with strong ties to the club: candidates include Gian Piero Gasperini, Antonio Conte and Igor Tudor.
Gasperini, un ritorno possibile?
As La Gazzetta dello Sport reports, among the profiles being evaluated is Gian Piero Gasperini, the current coach of Atalanta, with a contract until 2026 but no intention to renew. The Turin-based coach has experience and charisma and, with the Nerazzurri, won the Europa League, strengthening his reputation at the international level. Moreover, his ties with Juventus are strong: in addition to growing up in the Bianconeri youth academy, he coached the youth teams, even winning the Viareggio Tournament. His offensive and organized style of play could be a tactical turning point for the team.
L’ipotesi Conte bis
The name making the most noise among fans, however, is that of Antonio Conte. A former Juventus player, captain and coach, he started the cycle of nine consecutive Scudetti, winning three of them and returning the club to the top after difficult years. Last year, part of the management would have wanted him as Allegri’s successor, but the choice fell to a younger profile. However, if Conte were to leave Napoli after just one season and Juventus decided to change technical leadership, a return would not be impossible. His character and ability to motivate the team could be the right shock.
Anche Tudor tra i candidati
Another name in the running is that of Igor Tudor, a former Juventus defender and Pirlo’s former deputy on the Juventus bench. The Croatian is considered a viable solution should the club decide to focus on an experienced coach but without revolutionizing the project too much.
