Juventus He confirmed that the head coach was dismissed Thiago Motta.
Motta was appointed only by Bologna last summer, but he continued a contract for three years only for nine months.
Following Atalanta’s 4-0 home defeat, Fiorentina, 3-0 losses proved to be the last straw for Juve hierarchy.
Former player Igor Tudor was appointed to the replacement of Motta, the fifth in the Juventus Serie A ranking and the leaders are 12 points behind Inter Milan.
“Juventus FC announced that Thiago Motta has saved from his post as the coach of the first team of men.” He said.
“Juventus FC also announced that he has entrusted the first training session to Igor Tudor, the leadership of the first team to manage the first training session tomorrow.”
46-year-old Tudor returned to Juventus, spent most of his play career at the club, and recently served as the assistant of Andrea Pirlo in the 2020-21 season. He previously led Udinese, Hellas Verona and Lazio. The first match will be at home to Genoa.
Motta’dan Juventus Champions League ranking 20th and last month by PSV Eindhoven by the playoff scene was removed from the competition.
Shortly after a week, Juventus came out of Coppa Italia, who was knocked out by Empoli after a penalty shot in the quarterfinals.
Juve went to 21 league matches without defeating at the beginning of the season, but this period saw that Motta’s team drew 13 matches, which meant that they would never take part in the title race.
Although it was a rise after the first loss to Naples in January, Juventus won five in a row and paid the last heavy defeats that angered the administrators and supporters.
