The Bianconeri Appoint Previous Azzurri Head Coach Luciano Spalletti
The Old Lady have chosen former Italian national team manager Luciano Spalletti as their manager until the end of the season.
Spalletti replaces the Croatian manager, who was dismissed after the Serie A side's defeat by Lazio last weekend.
The former boss came on board in March as Thiago Motta's replacement but left after seven months after an eight-game winless streak.
Spalletti led Napoli to the Serie A title in 2022-23 before taking charge of Italy, after the team's failure to reach the 2022 World Cup during Roberto Mancini's tenure.
He helped them qualify for Euro 2024 exiting in the last 16 stage against Switzerland.
However, Spalletti was sacked by Italy in June following a loss to Norway in World Cup qualifying, 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 won the Russian Premier League twice with Zenit St Petersburg.
Massimo Brambilla took interim charge of Juventus in the midweek 3-1 triumph over Udinese moving them to seventh position in the league - trailing leaders Napoli by six points after nine matches.
They are 25th in the league phase of the Champions League, with one loss and two draws in their first three games.
