Finally, peace in Turin: Spalletti set to extend deal and continue mission with Juve

Unlike his predecessor at Juventus, Igor Tudor, who took over Tottenham's bench as a firefighter and left it just 44 days later, leaving the job unfinished, Luciano Spalletti's mission at Allianz Stadium seems to have succeeded. Moreover, it will continue.

After many struggles and a genuine managerial merry-go-round in the last two years (with the Croat and Thiago Motta), Juve have apparently found an adequate tactician. Hence, it's no wonder that, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, they are about to extend Spalletti's deal and let him continue his quest to bring the club back to its former glory.

The 67-year-old sat on the Old Lady's bench on October 30, 2025, and found himself in a very tricky situation. Tudor left after an eight-game winless run, and things had to change quickly.

Fortunately for the Turin side, this "shock therapy" worked, as Juventus suffered only two defeats until the end of January, recording 13 wins and 5 draws. A five-match winless streak followed, but the team managed to bounce back and is currently on a six-game unbeaten run, fiercely fighting for the Champions League place in the Serie A against Como, Roma, and Atalanta.

Hence, the club's management realized the squad needed peace and stability on the bench, so the decision to keep Spalletti had been made, and will be announced very soon.

His current contract was set to expire in June, while the new one, as La Gazzetta claims, should run through 2028 and guarantee him a €5 million salary plus bonuses.

The goals for the future are clear: qualify for the UCL, have a strong June Transfer Window, and be a title contender next season.

Spalletti got the board's trust. Now, it's up to him to start meeting the objectives.
