Juventus Name Ex- Azzurri Head Coach the Experienced Gaffer
The Serie A powerhouse have chosen previous Azzurri manager Luciano Spalletti to lead the team until the end of the season.
The 66-year-old takes over from the Croatian manager, who was sacked 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 guided Napoli to the Serie A crown in 2022-23 then moving on to lead the Italian national team, which missed out on the 2022 World Cup during Roberto Mancini's tenure.
He helped them qualify for Euro 2024 exiting in the last 16 stage against Switzerland.
Yet, the Italian FA let Spalletti go in June following a loss to Norway in World Cup qualifying, as Italy faced the possibility of not making a third World Cup in a row.
Spalletti's managerial career includes Inter Milan, Roma, and Udinese in Serie A and secured two Russian Premier League titles 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.
In the Champions League, they sit 25th in the league phase, after recording one defeat and two ties in the initial three fixtures.
