Juventus Dismiss Igor Tudor Following Eight-Game Winless Streak

In a significant move, Juventus has dismissed manager Igor Tudor following a disappointing defeat to Lazio. Tudor, who joined the club in March as Thiago Motta’s successor, has struggled to deliver results.

Eight-Match Winless Streak

The Croatian manager’s tenure has been marred by an eight-match winless streak. This series of poor performances has resulted in Juventus sitting eighth in the Serie A standings. The loss against Lazio marked the team’s third consecutive defeat across all competitions.

Juventus Statement

In their official statement, Juventus expressed gratitude toward Tudor and his staff. “The club thanks Igor Tudor and his entire staff for their professionalism and dedication over the past few months and wishes them all the best for their future careers,” the statement noted.

Upcoming Management Changes

Following Tudor’s departure, Massimiliano Brambilla has been appointed as interim manager. He will lead the team in their upcoming Serie A match against Udinese scheduled for Wednesday at 17:30 GMT.

Current Standings and Performance

  • Juventus is currently six points behind table leaders Napoli.
  • They have not secured a league victory in their last five matches.
  • In the Champions League, Juventus is ranked 25th in their group after losing once and drawing twice in their first three games.

As Juventus looks to turn their fortunes around, fans and analysts alike will be watching Brambilla’s approach in the upcoming match and beyond.
