  1. È anche vero che se lo vogliono vendere questa estate dovrebbero farlo giocare per dargli la possibilità di mettersi in mostra.
  2. Sí ma nel caso di Tudor mi sa che é stata la dirigenza a dirgli di farlo fuori dopo i suoi sfoghi bambineschi sui social.
  3. Con il 4-4-2 mi sembra una buona formazione. L'hanno preparata in allenamento ed è andata bene se Tudor ha deciso di cambiare il suo modulo preferito.
  4. Di Marzio confirms Juventus have entered the race for sought-after free agent Juventus have reportedly joined the fray for Jonathan David who will be one of the most coveted free agents of the summer transfer market. ............ At the age of 25, the Brooklyn native has decided that this is the time to embark on a new career chapter, especially with a host of top European clubs reportedly vying for his favour. ............ Nevertheless, the battle for the striker’s services had long begun, and Napoli were identified as one of the first clubs to make a concrete attempt to land Canada’s all-time top goal-scorer. But according to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, Juventus have swiftly followed suit, making contact with David’s entourage to learn the cost of the operation. The Bianconeri could part ways with Dusan Vlahovic in the coming months to avoid losing his services for free a year later, while Randal Kolo Muani’s loan stint will expire at the end of the season. ............ However, despite being labelled as a free agent, the Canadian certainly won’t come cheap. A report had already estimated the cost of the operation at circa €34 million in the first season. This sum includes the player’s salary, sign-on fee and his agents’ commissions. ............ . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/di-marzio-juventus-enter-race-jonathan-david/
  5. Juventus probable lineup vs Udinese: Tudor to make drastic formation change Juventus head coach Igor Tudor has reportedly decided to make a fundamental change to his starting lineup ahead of Sunday’s contest against Udinese. ............ Khephren Thuram, Nicolo Savona and Pierre Kalulu are all suspended, while Teun Koopmeiners and Federico Gatti have yet to fully recover. So according to several sources in the Italian media the Croatian manager will be forced to drop his tried-and-trusted 3-4-2-1 formation due to the lack of defenders at his disposal and unleash a 4-4-2 system. Michele Di Gregorio will start in goal as usual, while Lloyd Kelly makes a timely return from injury to link up with Renato Veiga at the heart of the backline. ............ In the middle of the park, Juventus captain Manuel Locatelli will be paired with the versatile Weston McKennie who returns to his original role to fill in for the absent Thuram. ............ Kenan Yildiz returns in attack after serving a two-match ban. The Turkish youngster should link up with Randal Kolo Muani, while Dusan Vlahovic starts on the bench. ............ Juventus Probable XI (4-4-2): Di Gregorio; Costa, Veiga, Kelly, Cambiaso; Gonzalez, Locatelli, McKennie, Weah; Kolo Muani, Yildiz (Conceicao). .

  6. Injuries and suspension will force Juventus to remake their midfield for Udinese Juventus face a critical fixture this weekend as they take on Udinese in Serie A, with significant pressure mounting due to an emergency in midfield. The Bianconeri must secure victory if they are to maintain their hopes of finishing in the top four this season. ............ The upcoming clash arrives at a time when Juventus are battling a series of absences. Several players are either suspended or doubtful for the fixture, limiting the club’s options and forcing a tactical reshuffle. Khephren Thuram and Nicolo Savona are suspended, while Lloyd Kelly, Teun Koopmeiners and Federico Gatti are currently uncertain to feature due to fitness concerns. ............ In light of the absences, manager Igor Tudor is expected to make notable adjustments. Juventus plan to deploy Weston McKennie and Douglas Luiz in central midfield, with Manuel Locatelli likely to be moved into the defensive line to compensate for the shortage at the back. Such versatility from key players will be crucial as the team attempts to overcome this challenging moment. This period represents a significant test for Tudor, who must demonstrate his tactical flexibility and leadership. ............ .

  7. Two Juventus stars still not training with the main group Juventus are intensifying their preparations ahead of this weekend’s crucial fixture against Udinese, with the pressure mounting to secure all three points. As the Serie A season enters its final stretch, the Bianconeri find themselves battling injury setbacks and suspensions, making squad depth and resilience more important than ever. ............ While the club remains optimistic about recovering some of the sidelined players in time for the weekend’s match, the most recent training session offered mixed news. Both Federico Gatti and Teun Koopmeiners were unable to participate in team drills. Instead, the duo trained separately due to fitness concerns, casting doubt over their availability for the Udinese fixture. This update will be unwelcome news for supporters, as both Gatti and Koopmeiners have been influential figures for Juventus this season. Their presence on the pitch often adds stability and creativity, and they have contributed significantly in key matches throughout the campaign. ............ Gatti and Koopmeiners are undoubtedly vital players, but Juventus must now rely on the depth of their squad to overcome this challenging period. Alternatives within the team must rise to the occasion and ensure the club’s objectives remain within reach. ............ .

  8. Juventus vs Udinese: Preview and Prediction For a club like Juventus and their ambitions, securing UEFA Champions League football is imperative, as Igor Tudor has a massive task at hand in the final two games of the Serie A season against Udinese and Venezia. The race for the fourth spot is still very much alive, with four teams angling to occupy that coveted place. As things stand, Juventus are level on 64 points with Lazio, while AS Roma and Bologna are chasing those two down with 63 and 62 points, respectively. With two games remaining, these minute gaps will determine a close-edged finish to the season’s top-four race. Juventus have met two of those three teams in their last two games, with both ending in eventful draws. ............ As a bonus, Tudor will hope that Udinese will continue their terrible record against Juventus on Sunday, with the visitors only managing to score once in their last six meetings. That strike came last year, at this very venue when Kosta Runjaic’s side secured a 1-0 win. ............ Team News & Tactics Juventus Igor Tudor must manoeuvre through a defensive crisis ahead of this game, as Lloyd Kelly will miss out with a problem. He joins Juan Cabal, Gleison Bremer, and Andrea Cambiaso on the sidelines, while Pierre Kalulu also misses out for Juventus against Udinese with a suspension. To add to their woes, Nicolo Savona is also missing through a suspension, and Tudor might consider using skipper Manuel Locatelli as a makeshift centre-back for this clash. Alberto Costa and Renato Veiga could slot on either side of Locatelli in that back three, which could allow Douglas Luiz to stake a claim in one of the central midfield roles alongside Khephren Thuram. Francisco Conceicao and Timothy Weah are pencilled in for the wing-back roles, while Nico Gonzalez and Kenan Yildiz manage the attacking spaces. Randal Kolo Muani’s key strike against Lazio will likely let him start against Udinese ahead of Dusan Vlahovic, who has not scored for Juventus since Tudor took over. Probable Lineup (3-4-2-1): Gregorio; Costa, Locatelli, Veiga; Conceicao, Luiz, Thuram, Weah; Yildiz, Gonzalez; Kolo Muani Udinese ............ Probable Lineup (3-5-1-1): Okoye; Kristiansen, Bijol, Solet; Modesto, Lovric, Karlstrom, Zarraga, Kamara; Davis; Pafundi Key Stats Juventus are undefeated in 34 of their last 38 matches (Serie A Juventus have kept a clean sheet in five of their last six matches against Udinese in all competitions Juventus are undefeated in 17 of their last 19 matches against Udinese in all competitions. Udinese have managed one victory against Juventus in their last 6 meetings. Player to Watch Manuel Locatelli The Juventus skipper will probably play the most important game of the season so far in a slightly unfamiliar role in central defence when they take on Udinese this weekend. A crisis at the back will likely see Igor Tudor use Locatelli in the back three, and the Italian international must put in a masterclass shift to ensure his team gets all three points. ............ Prediction Juventus 2-0 Udinese Udinese are missing key attackers, and add to their terrible record against Juventus, there is not much expected from Kosta Runjaic’s side ahead of this trip to Turin. The visitors are not under any pressure with regards to their season, although they might suffer because Juventus will be hungry for a win here. This clash with Udinese is probably the most important game for Igor Tudor so far in his short reign as Juventus manager. A win will place the Bianconeri as the clear favourites to finish fourth ahead of the final game of the campaign, and despite the Turin side having some key issues at the back, they are expected to take all three points and keep a clean sheet in the process. .

  9. Serie A Preview: Juventus vs Udinese – Team News, Line-ups & Prediction Juventus were second away from claiming a crucial win at Lazio last weekend, only for Matias Vecino’s 96th-minute equalizer to settle an ill-tempered 1-1 draw. Randal Kolo Muani’s opener was in vain as the record-time Italian champions finished the round in fourth, albeit level on points with the fifth-placed Biancocelesti. The situation is far more complex, though. Roma languish only a point adrift of Juventus, whose lead over seventh-placed Bologna stands at only two points. Probably needless to say, anything other than victory against Udinese would likely put the Turin giants in an inferior position heading into the final round. During his pre-match conference via Calciomercato, under-pressure boss Igor Tudor admitted he doesn’t feel the heat despite Juventus’ complicated position. The club’s first foreign manager in almost two decades must be glad to see Udinese touch down at the Allianz Stadium, considering his team’s recent record in this match-up. A 2-0 win in November’s reverse fixture marked Juve’s 12th victory in their last 15 league meetings with the Friulian outfit (D2, L1). With that in mind, Kosta Runjaic’s side should make this journey with low expectations, especially after the embarrassment of a 2-1 defeat to an already-relegated Monza in the previous round. Match Preview Juventus These are far from idyllic times for Juventus. Back-to-back draws against fellow top-four hopefuls Bologna and Lazio have heightened the pressure on Tudor. Furthermore, sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli has come under scrutiny, even though the club renewed confidence in the former Napoli executive. Despite drawing a league-high 16 matches this season, Juventus’ home record against Udinese suggests this clash will go one way or another. Indeed, none of their 28 league meetings since the start of the 1994/95 campaign have ended all square (W22, L6), though the visitors emerged 1-0 victors in this corresponding fixture last term. However, Juventus defied a numerical disadvantage to beat Monza 2-0 in their last Serie A home outing, preserving a near-flawless league record on home turf in 2025. Tudor’s charges have won seven of their eight top-flight matches since the calendar year flipped (D1), including all three since his appointment. Udinese ............ Team News Much of Juventus’ problems in 2025 came from a full-blown injury crisis. In addition to long-term absentees Arkadiusz Milik, Gleison Bremer, and Juan Cabal, Tudor cannot call upon the likes of Andrea Cambiaso, Lloyd Kelly, and Teun Koopmeiners. Moreover, Pierre Kalulu, Nicolo Savona, and Khephren Thuram are absent with suspensions. ............ Juventus vs Udinese Potential Starting Line-ups Juventus (3-4-2-1): Di Gregorio; Gatti, Locatelli, Veiga; Costa, Luiz, McKennie, Weah; Gonzalez, Yildiz; Kolo Muani. Udinese (3-5-1-1): Okoye; Kristensen, Bijol, Solet; Modesto, Payero, Karlstrom, Lovric, Kamara; Ekkelenkamp; Davis. Juventus vs Udinese Prediction Tudor can become only the third Juventus manager in the last 55 years to win each of their first four Serie A home games. Given Udinese’s notorious struggle in this fixture and a rather unenviable track record outside the Bluenergy Stadium, joining the illustrious company of Maximiliano Allegri and Maurizio Sarri should be a mere formality.

  10. Tudor: Juventus in a ‘deep hole’ when I arrived, I’m not ‘inferior to anybody’ Juventus coach Igor Tudor insists he’s ‘not inferior to anybody’ and notes that the team was in a ‘deep hole’ when he was appointed in March. Juventus host Udinese in the last home game of the season on Sunday. Tudor previewed the game at a pre-match press conference, but most of the questions were about the team’s previous performances and his future at the club. ............ “For what he’s done, the best Gatti can do is the same as in the last game,” Tudor said. Gatti has just recovered from a calf bone fracture and was introduced only for the final five minutes in the previous game against Lazio. Juventus are level on 64 points with the Biancocelesti in fourth position, but they have a better head-to-head record, so if they win the remaining two matches, they’ll qualify for the Champions League. “I think we’ve done a good job despite all the problems,” Tudor insisted. ............ “When you don’t have Gatti, Koopmeiners, Yildiz, Cambiaso, Kelly, and a team that plays down to one man for two games, it isn’t easy. “We must always be exigent and know that Juventus must win. I am the first one to be sorry, but I feel that the team has done all it could, given the circumstances. The team was in a deep hole when I arrived. Now, they are more aware, and they fight more, also with the playing time we’ve had. You need to understand the moment, and I congratulate the lads who have given their all. ............ Kenan Yildiz will return to action on Sunday after serving a two-game ban for violent conduct. “He has suffered a lot. He is a fundamental player in the team,” said Tudor. ............ Tudor will remain in charge until the Club World Cup, but it’s not guaranteed that he’ll be offered a contract extension. According to several media outlets, Antonio Conte is Juventus’ primary coaching option for 2025-26. “I live day by day, but I don’t think about the future,” insisted Tudor. “If you ask me whether I feel inferior to anybody, I say no to no one.” .

  11. 17 maggio 1987 - Ultima partita di Platini in bianconero.
  12. Preview: Juventus vs. Udinese - prediction, team news, lineups Still clinging on to a precious top-four place, Juventus play their final home game of the Serie A season when they welcome Udinese to Turin on Sunday. In a battle of the Bianconeri, Juve need points to aid their Champions League quest, while the visitors are already bound for a mid-table finish. Match preview With two rounds remaining, there are still a quartet of teams within two points of fourth place in Serie A, and Juventus head the pack as an incredibly tight race reaches its final bend. As things stand, Juve occupy fourth spot on 64 points, level with Lazio, while Roma are sixth on 63 and Coppa Italia winners Bologna sit seventh on 62. The fallen giants could have been carrying a three-point advantage into the penultimate matchday, but Pierre Kalulu's red card proved costly against direct rivals Lazio last week. Randal Kolo Muani's goal had put the Bianconeri on track for a 1-0 win at Stadio Olimpico, but his French compatriot was later sent off, before the home side netted a dramatic stoppage-time leveller. That brought more frustration for Juve's fans, as a tally of 16 league draws this season is just one short of their all-time record, set back in 1955-56. Nonetheless, they have won seven of their last eight Serie A home games - after drawing seven of the previous nine - and interim head coach Igor Tudor boasts a flawless record in Turin. Only two Juventus managers have won all of their first four home fixtures over the last 50 years - Max Allegri in 2014 and Maurizio Sarri in 2019 - but Tudor can join that select club on Sunday. Juve have won 12 of their last 15 league games against Udinese, scoring an average of 2.3 goals in the process, so history suggests Tudor's team can take one step closer to the Champions League. ............ Team News Juventus are faced by a defensive dilemma, as English centre-back Lloyd Kelly recently joined ACL victims Bremer and Juan Cabal on the sidelines, while Andrea Cambiaso is sidelined by a thigh injury. Furthermore, Igor Tudor must do without Pierre Kalulu - who will serve a two-match ban after his red card for violent conduct against Lazio - and Nicolo Savona (also suspended). So, captain Manuel Locatelli may have to drop back from midfield, where Juve will be missing another regular, Khephren Thuram, due to suspension. In better news for Tudor, Kenan Yildiz is now available, while top scorer Dusan Vlahovic returned from a layoff last week and could be promoted from the bench - but Randal Kolo Muani hopes to keep his place up front. Despite recently suffering a drought, the latter has still scored seven Serie A goals since making his Juve debut in January, and only Capocannoniere favourite Mateo Retegui has netted more (10) during that time. ............ Juventus possible starting lineup: Di Gregorio; Gatti, Locatelli, Veiga; Costa, Luiz, McKennie, Weah; Gonzalez, Yildiz; Kolo Muani Udinese possible starting lineup: Okoye; Kristensen, Bijol, Solet; Modesto, Payero, Karlstrom, Lovric, Kamara; Ekkelenkamp; Davis We say: Juventus 2-1 Udinese Both hit by numerous absences, neither side is particularly adept at retaining leads, so there could be a twist in the tale late on. Udinese have lost four Serie A games after leading at half time - a league high - while, only Venezia and Como have dropped more points from winning positions than Juventus (23). Yet, Juve's need for points to finish fourth should see them scrap out a win against aimless mid-table opponents. .

  13. Secondo me Gatti e Kelly non hanno 90 minuti nelle gambe per cui inizierá uno dei due e l'altro lo sostituirá a gara in corso. Possibile Locatelli in difesa e Douglas Luiz e McKennie a centrocampo insieme.
  14. Juventus want Conte back from Napoli for 2025-26 Multiple sources are confirming that Juventus have chosen Antonio Conte to relaunch the club next season, hoping to lure him back from Napoli. He had been mentioned as an outsider candidate for several months, but the possible failure to qualify for the Champions League and Conte’s own problems at Napoli with President Aurelio De Laurentiis have pushed this idea to the forefront. ............ It would be a return to the Old Lady for someone who was already an icon both as a player and a coach. The 55-year-old still has a home in Turin with his family, so would be set up to start work straight away. ............ His coaching spell at Juventus lasted from 2011 to 2014, winning three consecutive Serie A titles. ............ . Read more -> https://football-italia.net/juventus-want-conte-back-from-napoli/
  15. Boost for Juventus as a defender returns to group training Juventus centre-back Lloyd Kelly has trained alongside his teammates at Continassa on Thursday morning. ............ Kelly missed the last two crucial contests against Bologna and Lazio due to a muscle injury in the hamstring. Both contests ended in a 1-1 draw. ............ The 26-year-old is making comprehensive progress on the training ground, and even joined his teammates in group training, albeit partially. Hence, this could pave the way for a call-up at the weekend. The Bianconeri will play their last home fixture of the campaign on Sunday when they host Udinese, before travelling to Venezia on the final day of the Serie A season. Igor Tudor’s men must secure victories in their final two contests in order to maintain their fourth place in the Serie A table and consequently book a place in the Champions League, as Lazio, Roma, Milan and Bologna are all breathing down their neck. ............ Juventus will be without Pierre Kalulu who has been slapped with a two-match ban due to his violent conduct against Lazio, while Gleison Bremer remains out of action. The source also revealed that Federico Gatti, Andrea Cambiaso and Teun Koopmeiners have been training separately, so it remains to be seen if they will recover in time to earn call-ups against Udinese. .

  16. How Chiellini could help Juventus become a better club With the departure of Francesco Calvo, a significant restructuring is expected at Juventus at the board level this summer. This development could open the door for notable changes behind the scenes, and one particularly intriguing possibility is Giorgio Chiellini assuming a more prominent role within the club’s hierarchy. Chiellini remains a familiar and respected figure among the current Juventus fanbase, having only recently concluded his playing career. It has been less than five years since he last wore the black and white shirt, and his legacy at the Allianz Stadium is firmly intact. ............ There are several potential benefits to appointing Chiellini to a more influential position within the club’s management structure: 1. Insightful Contribution to Player Recruitment ............ His experience at the highest level of the game would enable him to assist the recruitment team in identifying players who are not only talented but also aligned with the club’s ethos. His involvement could reduce the risk of unsuccessful signings and help build a more cohesive and effective squad. 2. Effective Communication with Current Players During difficult periods, when motivation and morale may be lacking, board members are sometimes granted access to the dressing room to speak directly to the players. Chiellini, with his leadership credentials and the respect he commands, could serve as an ideal intermediary between the board and the squad. ............ 3. Influencing Transfer TargetsIn the modern transfer market, competition for elite talent is intense. Juventus frequently targets top-tier players who are also courted by rival clubs. Having a club legend like Chiellini personally reach out to potential signings could be a decisive factor. ............ .

  17. Juventus fans delighted with latest Bremer social media update Juventus defender Gleison Bremer thrilled the club’s supporters by posting an encouraging update on his recovery process. The Brazilian has been the club’s most reliable centre-back since making the crosstown switch from Torino in the summer of 2022. ............ On Thursday, the Bianconeri supporters were delighted by a post shared by the club, showing the player working with the ball for the first time since his horrendous injury. ............ This is certainly considered an important step in the long and gruelling recovery path, and it suggests that the defender’s return to action has become significantly closer. In recent months, several reports revealed that Bremer’s objective is to be included in Igor Tudor’s squad for the FIFA Club World Cup, which will kickstart after one month. Although he’s unlikely to take part in the action, he could certainly get the nod if he shows improvement on the training field over the next few weeks. It should be noted that returning to training with the group is one thing, while regaining match fitness is another, especially after spending several months on the sidelines. ............ .

  18. Kalulu makes Juventus promise after costly red card in 1-1 Lazio draw Pierre Kalulu has promised that he will be the team’s ‘number one supporter’ from the sidelines when he serves a two-match suspension after a costly red card during his side’s 1-1 draw with Lazio in Serie A over the weekend. Kalulu was sent off after an incident of violent conduct, which has earned him a two-match ban which means that his 2024-25 season is now over. ............ Kalulu, who will not be eligible to play against Udinese or Venezia in the next two matches, has written a message to the Juventus supporters on Instagram following the confirmation of his ban earlier this week. “Not the way I wanted to finish this season,” Kalulu wrote. “What’s certain is that even on the sideline, I’ll be the team’s number one supporter. Let’s finish the job together. Forza Juve.” . Read more -> https://football-italia.net/kalulu-makes-juventus-promise-after-lazio-red/
