Thiago Motta’s exoneration may come in the event of a humiliating defeat against Fiorentina: but sensational news comes, Juve cannot afford it
Esonero Motta, la Juve non se lo può permettere: Giuntoli lo sa bene, il costo è esorbitante – SerieAnews
Sunday is a real crucial day for Thiago Motta. His Juventus team takes on Fiorentina and it is perhaps the most important match of the season for the coach. Without any doubt, in fact, it can be argued how the Italo-Brazilian coach is gambling much of his future at the Franchi, both immediate and long-term.
Juventus will have to give immediate answers on the field after the humiliating 0-4 loss at Allianz Stadium last Sunday against Atalanta. Fourth place still belongs to the Bianconeri but rivals are now ready more than ever to take advantage of any misstep. A clear change of pace will therefore be needed in a challenge that is never easy for Juve, even on an environmental level given the great rivalry.
The charges against Motta are many: from failure from a sporting standpoint with eliminations in the Champions League at the hands of Feyenoord and in the Coppa Italia from Empoli to a game that is struggling to take off, with the soccer exhibited at Bologna nothing more than a mirage. Last, not least, also an uninspiring relationship with the players and the locker room.

Motta, therefore, will have to prove that he still holds the reins of the locker room and, above all, that he can get the job done. That consists with qualifying for the next edition of the Champions League, which is in fact the minimum goal for the season.

In case of a new débâcle, a reversal might even be inevitable, with the option related to Roberto Mancini becoming more and more valid and accredited. A solution that no one at the Continassa hopes to have to use but it is clear that the management is ready for anything, in a season that has been decidedly forgettable so far.
Exoneration could thus be triggered automatically if Juve loses badly in Florence, both in terms of result and performance. But how much would it cost to exonerate Thiago Motta?
Quanto costa l’addio di Motta alle casse bianconere
An early departure of the coach would be decidedly uneconomical for the Bianconeri coffers, with Giuntoli struggling to put the accounts in order – succeeding, moreover – through capital gains and disposals. Yet, accounts in hand, let’s see how much Motta’s farewell would affect.

The coach currently earns 3.5 million euros net per season until June 30, 2027. An on exoneration would, therefore, mean shelling out a figure of about 15 million euros, which would become 20 by also adding the salaries of his entire staff. A figure to which the salary of the new coach would also have to be added – Mancini would need at least five or six million euros a year – in addition to the new staff.
