The Turin Giants Bring In Former Italian National Team Manager Luciano Spalletti
Juventus have appointed ex- Italy head coach Luciano Spalletti to lead the team for the rest of the term.
The experienced coach steps in for his predecessor, who was let go after the Serie A side's defeat by Lazio on Sunday.
The former boss came on board in March as Thiago Motta's replacement but departed after seven months after an eight-game winless streak.
Spalletti guided Napoli to the Serie A crown in 2022-23 prior to assuming the Italy role, who had failed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup during Roberto Mancini's tenure.
He helped them qualify for Euro 2024 exiting in the last 16 stage against Switzerland.
Nonetheless, Italy dismissed Spalletti in June post a qualifying defeat against Norway, as Italy faced the possibility of not making a third World Cup in a row.
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 during the 3-1 victory over Udinese on Wednesday moving them to seventh position in the league - six points behind leaders Napoli after nine games.
They are 25th in the league phase of the Champions League, with one loss and two draws in their first three games.
