The Turin Giants Appoint Previous Italy Head Coach the Experienced Gaffer
The Old Lady have appointed ex- Italian national team head coach Spalletti to take the helm for the rest of the term.
The 66-year-old steps in for Igor Tudor, who was let go post the Lazio setback last weekend.
The former boss came on board in March to replace Thiago Motta but departed after seven months following a string of eight matches without a victory.
Spalletti led Napoli to the Serie A title in 2022-23 then moving on to lead the Italian national team, after the team's failure to reach the 2022 World Cup during Roberto Mancini's tenure.
He secured their spot in Euro 2024 where they were knocked out in the last 16 by Switzerland.
Nonetheless, Italy dismissed Spalletti 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 served as interim manager for 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.
In the Champions League, they sit 25th in the league phase, after recording one defeat and two ties in the initial three fixtures.
