🔗 Share this article The Bianconeri Bring In Previous Italy Boss Spalletti The Old Lady have named previous Italian national team boss Spalletti to take the helm for the remainder of the campaign. The 66-year-old steps in for the Croatian manager, who was let go after the Serie A side's defeat by Lazio on Sunday. Tudor had joined the club 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 prior to assuming the Italy role, which missed out on the 2022 World Cup under former boss Roberto Mancini. Under his guidance, they made it to Euro 2024 but were eliminated in the round of 16 by Switzerland. Yet, the Italian FA let Spalletti go 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. Spalletti's managerial career includes Inter Milan, Roma, and Udinese in Serie A and lifted the Russian league trophy twice while at Zenit St Petersburg. Massimo Brambilla served as interim manager for Juventus for their 3-1 win against Udinese on Wednesday which left them seventh in Serie A - six points adrift of Napoli at the top after nine rounds. In the Champions League, they sit 25th in the league phase, after recording one defeat and two ties in the initial three fixtures.
