Chiellini credits Tudor for reviving Juventus atmosphere, admits lack of balance Juventus director Giorgio Chiellini identifies Igor Tudor as the man who rekindled the flame at the Allianz Stadium. Over the past few years, the Bianconeri faithful have become increasingly frustrated by the club’s unsatisfactory results and the uninspiring performances, whether during Max Allegri’s second reign, or Thiago Motta’s brief spell last season. ............ Ahead of Saturday’s 1-1 draw against Atalanta, Chiellini joined fellow Juventus legend Alessandro Del Piero for a pitch-side interview. ............ “There’s nothing special. I think we’ve been very good and a bit lucky to win this type of match against Inter Milan,” admitted the former Italy captain. “But it is also because of our coach’s eagerness. I think he’s transcending this personality to our team to not give up and to be strong until the end. That is our motto, Fino alla Fine. But Tudor has been able to let it work, explain it to the team and make it effective.” ............ “I think every winning team has to be balanced. What we’ve been missing in the last few matches what this balance between the defence and midfield, especially. “Sometimes we were too deep when we didn’t need to. And sometimes we weren’t too connected between the defence, midfield and attack, so we conceded too many shots from the outside of the box, which were difficult to save. “I think we must work to show the players that in this type of situation, it is important to be aggressive as much as possible, but not to go too deep.” .

Chelsea & West Ham among five clubs chasing Juventus midfielder Juventus captain Manuel Locatelli is seemingly a man in demand, with five suitors vying for his services in January, including Chelsea. The 27-year-old was officially appointed as the Bianconeri’s skipper last March following Igor Tudor’s arrival, albeit he had been regularly donning the armband while Thiago Motta was in charge. ............ Locatelli has attracted interest from the Premier League, with four English sides keeping close tabs on the situation. The source names Chelsea as one of the player’s staunchest admirers, even though they’re happy with their current first-choice midfielders, namely Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo. The Juventus captain would have the opportunity to work under the tutelage of his compatriot, Enzo Maresca. Moreover, Newcastle United are reportedly reflecting on a possible reunion between Locatelli and his Italy teammate, Sandro Tonali, at St. James Park. Like the Blues, the Magpies are taking part in the Champions League, so they remain attentive to every opportunity to add quality depth to Eddie Howe’s squad. ............ The source also links Locatelli to Aston Villa and the struggling West Ham United, in addition to Bundesliga giants, Bayer Leverkusen. The report adds that Juventus aren’t in favour of selling their skipper, especially in the middle of the campaign, but they might consider a deal if the price is right. The Serie A giants are gunning for at least €40 million. ............ . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/chelsea-west-ham-newcastle-juventus-manuel-locatelli/

Tudor reveals why he kept David on the bench, highlights difference between Juventus strikers Juventus manager Igor Tudor explains why Jonathan David remained an unused substitute against Atalanta on Saturday. The two sides shared the spoils in an entertaining draw at the Allianz Stadium. The Orobici broke the deadlock against the run of play towards the end of the first half through Kamaldeen Sulemana. Nevertheless, Juan Cabal emerged as the most unlikely saviour for the Old Lady, bagging the equaliser just minutes following his return from a 10-month injury layoff. ............ The Croatian manager picked Lois Openda to start as the lone striker, supported by Kenan Yildiz and Vasilije Adzic. However, the Belgian was largely ineffective, so the manager resorted to Dusan Vlahovic, who didn’t fare much better. ............ Tudor reassured that he intended to play the former Lille striker David, but he had to bring in Cabal instead, as Gleison Bremer asked to be substituted after feeling a muscle strain. “I’m very happy for Cabal,” said the Juventus manager in his post-match press conference. “But it’s a shame we couldn’t make the most of the last substitution by bringing in David.” ............ “Openda, Vlahovic and David can’t play as attacking midfielders. But every now and then, they adapt. We play 3-4-3 and I have to be good at utilising our players. “We have three players who prefer to play as a central striker. Openda wants his space, whereas David wants to stay close to the goal, and Vlahovic is the same. Nevertheless, they have to adapt when they play deeper.” .

Juventus 1 - Atalanta 1: Initial reaction and random observations Juventus, once again, have left a lot to be desired as they ventured out on a second-half comeback bid. We’ve seen this type of situation in each of the last three times they’ve taken to the field at the Allianz Stadium. And just like the previous two times against Inter Milan in the Derby d’Italia and then Borussia Dortmund to open the Champions League league phase, Juventus were hounding the opposing goal in hopes of taking a late lead as the anxiety only went higher and higher amongst the 40,000-plus in the stands. ............ If not for one Juan Cabal —easily one of the least likely players in one of Juve’s blue away strip that they actually wore at home to score a goal — finding the back of the net for the first time since he was still playing in Colombia 3 1/2 years ago, Juventus would have likely suffered their first loss of the 2025-26 season. That is the good part to come out of Saturday night — they didn’t lose. But other than that, this was a night in which a lot of the same problems we’ve seen from Juventus over the last couple of years and the last couple of managers come to the fore. This was a 1-1 draw where Juve dominated possession but ultimately didn’t do a whole hell of a lot with it in a 1-1 draw against Atalanta, the third straight draw within a two-week span from Igor Tudor’s squad that definitely had some worrying signs. You want individual errors leading to the opposing team scoring a goal after doing virtually nothing in the attacking third? You got that from Vasilije Adžić and his turnover that led to Atalanta taking a 1-0 lead right before the half. ............ And, of course, there was the scoring chance that wasn’t scored that will loom so incredibly large in a lot of minds over the coming hours, with Weston McKennie unable to put away a glorious chance in the 88th minute and instead seeing his shot go right at Marco Carnesecchi. It definitely felt like one of those games where Juventus were just fighting an uphill battle even when they weren’t behind on the scoreboard. Atalanta were playing as a classic Ivan Juric side wants to play — they will let you have the ball even they mix it up with their press and then just try and counter you to death. That, plus the Adžić mistake and the subsequent juking of Federico Gatti, is why they were up 1-0 going into the half. Juventus had virtually every advantage statistically outside of the most important one — on the scoreboard. ............ Is one point better than none a positive? Sure. Is the fact that a banged up Atalanta side with some of their best players either out injured and back in Bergamo or sitting on the bench coming away from this one with a point a negative for Juventus? Yeah, definitely. This was the same Atalanta — albeit with a new manager, of course — that throttled Juventus back in early March and put one of the final nails in Thiago Motta’s coffin in Turin. They certainly weren’t at that level on Saturday night, and it really did show no matter how well Juric might have set things up in this one. We can play the “it’s early” card all we want, but these problems that Juventus have shown this season aren’t new. They showed more signs of fatigue — can we give Khephren Thuram a break, please? — even though their last game was seven days ago. These are reasons for worry no matter how early in the season it may still be. ............ RANDOM THOUGHTS AND OBSERVATIONS Pre-game thought No. 1: Well, that certainly is an interesting starting lineup from Mister Tudor. Pre-game thought No. 2: Quite the interesting time for Adžić to make his first career start at Juventus. ............ Then Pierre Kalulu goes and hammers a header off the post. Man, knowing how this one turned out, how different things would have been if that ball had been directed about a foot more to the left and snuck inside the post. Juventus had 69% possession through the first 20 minutes. I think that could be nice. A sign of just how Atalanta approached the opening stages of this one: Juventus had a 174-53 advantage in terms of completed passes through the first 25 minutes. They had a 12-2 advantage when it came to entries into the final third and 12-1 edge with touches in the opposition’s box over that same time period. They had no goals to show for it. ............ There is a collective rise of anticipation at the Allianz whenever Kenan Yildiz has the ball at his feet now. Like, it was there last season, but it’s just grown seemingly 10 fold now. He is the star of the show, and everybody is just waiting for him to do his next really wonderful piece of magic with his right or left foot. Yildiz and Edon Zhegrova being on the field together has the potential to be very fun. Juventus didn’t have a single shot during the first 25 minutes of the second half. That’s not good. ............ I, for one, am happy for Juan Cabal and him getting his first goal since 2000-freaking-22. He was playing for Atlético Nacional back then! That’s a lot time! He often is the “other player” when thinking about the major knee injuries Juventus dealt with last season — which is expected considering just how good and important Gleison Bremer is. But Cabal has brought a positive impact in his handful of appearances off the bench so far. That’s all you can ask from him as he continues to slowly work his way back into the fold. Speaking of dudes who had ACL injuries last season, it seems like Bremer asked to be subbed out more due to fatigue more than anything. Will be very interesting to see how Tudor handles him knowing that Juventus have all of a few days in between now and their trip to Spain to face Villarreal. ............ My guy Khephren is tired. Like really tired. Koopmeiners wasn’t necessarily bad against his former club, but we’re still waiting for that Atalanta version of him to show up and I really have no idea what it will take at his point. The bar is very, very low for him right now to clear the “at least he wasn’t terrible” when he plays — and that’s unfortunate because there is still a good player somewhere in there. I know the bar is still relatively low for Lloyd Kelly, but he’s having a good season! Wasn’t expecting that. ............ Juventus finished with 24 shots. They scored one goal. Starting to think Carnesecchi really is the bane of my existence. That man is so good. Atalanta are going to make so much money whenever they sell him. Juve’s one point off the Serie A lead. Time for Max to help out a little bit on Sunday. (But not next Sunday!)

Juventus player ratings vs Atalanta: Cabal the most unlikely saviour Juventus registered their second Serie A draw in a row, as they shared the spoils with Atalanta at the Allianz Stadium in Turin. The Bianconeri were the better side in the first half, but couldn’t find the breakthrough. On the contrary, La Dea took advantage of Vasilije Adzic’s mistake to open the scoring through Kamaldeen Sulemana. Nevertheless, Juan Cabal salvaged a point for the home side on his return from injury. ............ Juventus (3-4-2-1) Michele Di Gregorio – 6 ............ Federico Gatti – 6 ............ Gleison Bremer – 6 The Brazilian was resolute for as long as he lasted, but he almost gifted Nikola Krstovic a goal after misjudging an air ball. Lloyd Kelly – 6.5 The Englishman continues to win over his initial detractors, as he produced another convincing showing at the back. Pierre Kalulu – 6 The former Milan defender almost scored in the second minute but was denied by the post. Switched from wing-back to centre-back in the second half. Teun Koopmeiners – 5.5 The Dutchman ran more than anyone else, but still lacked the required technical touch and creativity. Khephren Thuram – 5.5 The French midfielder had a promising start, but he doesn’t seem to be at his best physically. Found difficulties matching Mario Pasalic for pace, which might have prompted his exit early in the second half. Andrea Cambiaso – 7 An inspiring display from the Italy international who won his duel against Raoul Bellanova on the wing, while helping the midfielders in the buildup as he operated in a free role. Vasilije Adzic – 4.5 Aside from a couple of dangerous attempts on target, the teenager had a full debut to forget. Gave away possession cheaply on at least five occasions, and this eventually proved costly, allowing Atalanta to break the deadlock against the run of play. Kenan Yildiz – 6 ............ Loic Openda – 5 The Belgian has once again failed to justify his selection ahead of Vlahovic and Jonathan David. He has yet to present himself as a threat in front of goal. Substitutues Dusan Vlahovic – 5.5 ............ Weston McKennie – 6 The American brought some much-needed energy in midfield and caused De Roon’s dismissal, but should have done better when he had the chance to win it for Juventus. Edon Zhegrova – 6.5 A vibrant cameo from the speed demon who gave Davide Zappacosta nightmares. Joao Mario – 6 The Portuguese’s crosses weren’t too accurate, but one of them ended up being the assist for Cabal’s equaliser thanks to a deflection Juan Cabal – 7 A dream return for the Colombian who opened his account for Juventus in his first appearance after 10 months on the sidelines. .

Marocchi explains what stopped Juventus from beating Atalanta Atalanta secured a valuable draw against Juventus in Turin this evening despite being reduced to ten men. The visitors began brightly, showing composure and organisation, and were rewarded when they took the lead shortly before half-time. Juventus were forced to chase the game and eventually found an equaliser in the second half, though their efforts to complete a comeback ultimately fell short. ............ Igor Tudor would have anticipated more cutting-edge from his team, given the attacking talent at his disposal, but Atalanta’s organisation under Ivan Juric proved decisive. Every attempt to prise open their back line was met with resistance, ensuring Juventus were denied a winning strike. Giancarlo Marocchi reflected on the encounter: “When you win or draw after a comeback, it’s much more of a celebration than usual. Then, an orderly Atalanta blocked Juventus, who had started very well, creating and not creating. However, Atalanta’s order alone was enough to keep the game deadlocked. Then, Atalanta actually took the lead, and with three attackers, a defender who shouldn’t have come on scored at the end. This happens too, and in the end, Juventus always come from behind to win. Atalanta can only be satisfied with the path they’ve taken with Juric.” ............ While Juventus fought hard and dominated the latter stages, they could not convert their pressure into three points. Their failure to break down Atalanta’s ten men underlined the need for greater sharpness in attack, particularly when faced with disciplined opponents. The draw was far from the outcome the Bianconeri wanted, especially at home, yet it offered important lessons. ............ .

Tudor: ‘Glass half full, one of the best Juventus performances’ Igor Tudor sees ‘the glass half full’ after Juventus came back for a 1-1 draw with Atalanta, insisting it was ‘one of the best performances since I’ve been here.’ The Bianconeri pulled a few surprises in the starting XI, picking Vasilije Adzic for his first Serie A start with Kenan Yildiz and Lois Openda, but despite having several scoring opportunities, they failed to make the breakthrough in the first half. ............ The game turned late on when Juan Cabal poked in from six yards after an Odilon Kossounou fresh-air clearance, then Marten de Roon saw red moments later, but Juve were unable to turn it around completely. “I see the glass half full, because we put in a great performance, one of the best since I’ve been here,” Tudor said. “It was a tough match between two teams who play in the Champions League, so a draw is fair.” ............ The Old Lady also lost Gleison Bremer to a muscular injury, as he asked to come off. “He was playing against a very strong striker today and used up a lot of energy, so we’ll see. I don’t think it’s serious, but the timing was a problem, as I couldn’t introduce Jonathan David in the final minutes,” explained Tudor. “Khephren Thuram felt a twinge in his calf, but that’s nothing to worry about either.” ............ “There are three centre-forwards and a group of players who can support the striker. I just have to choose them from game to game, making them all play in the system that we set up. There’s also Francisco Conceicao, who will be fit and ready for the Champions League next week.” ............ “Adzic deserved to start today, he was a bit sluggish and we paid for that, but this is part of the maturation process. He is a player we really believe in.” . Read more -> https://football-italia.net/tudor-glass-halffull-best-juventus-performance/

Player Ratings: Juventus 1-1 Atalanta – Tudor’s paradox, another Lookman for La Dea A goal from Juan Cabal helped Juventus avoid defeat against Atalanta, who seem to have found the new Ademola Lookman in Kamaldeen Sulemana. Juventus vs. Atalanta – player ratings Juventus: Di Gregorio 6; Gatti 5 (64′ Joao Mario 6), Bremer 5 (75′ Cabal 6.5), Kelly 6.5; Kalulu 5.5, Koopmeiners 5.5, Thuram 5.5 (57′ McKennie 5.5), Cambiaso 6; Adzic 4.5 (57′ Vlahovic 5), Yildiz 5; Openda 5 (63′ Zhegrova 6). Coach: Tudor 5.5. Best Juventus player: Cabal 6.5 – Introduced from the bench to replace the injured Bremer, the Colombia international scored his first goal since returning from a cruciate ligament injury. Kelly’s performance should also be highlighted, the best Juventus centre-back today. Lowest Juventus rating: Adzic 4.5 – Many poor passes and lost possession in the build-up to Atalanta’s opening goal. Juventus coach: Tudor 5.5 – The paradox is that he has plenty of options in attack, but Juventus struggle to create big chances to score. His men moved the ball too slowly and only tried to hurt opponents through sterile crosses that the Atalanta defence managed easily. Atalanta: Carnesecchi 6.5; Kossounou 5, Djimsiti 7, Ahanor 6; Bellanova 6, De Roon 5, Pasalic 6, Zappacosta 6.5; Samardzic 6 (76′ Musah 6), Sulemana 7 (61′ De Ketelaere 5.5); Krstovic 6 (81′ Brescianini N/A). Coach: Juric 6. ............ Atalanta coach: Juric 6 – It may not be the same Atalanta as the Gasperini era, but they haven’t lost their soul. ............ .

Ten-man Atalanta survives late Juventus onslaught to get a draw in Turin Ten-man Atalanta held Juventus to a 1-1 draw in Turin this evening, surviving a wave of late pressure from the home side. Both clubs came into the match unbeaten, and the intensity from the opening whistle reflected their determination to preserve that record. ............ The deadlock was broken in added time at the end of the opening period, with Atalanta striking a blow just before the interval. While Juventus may have felt unfortunate to trail after an evenly balanced half, matches at this level often hinge on small details and the ability of managers to reset their teams through tactical adjustments. The restart saw Atalanta continue to pose a threat on the counter, even as Juventus pushed forward in search of an equaliser. The Bianconeri dominated possession and territory, yet clear openings proved elusive against a disciplined defensive structure put in place by Ivan Juric. ............ The turning point came midway through the second half when Juan Cabal, introduced from the bench, found the net just two minutes after his arrival. His goal provided Juventus with the lifeline they were chasing, sparking belief in the home crowd and adding further urgency to their attacks. Atalanta’s task became even more difficult shortly afterwards when they were reduced to ten men. From that point, it was relentless Juventus pressure, wave after wave of attacks driven by their substitutes. Edon Zhegrova, in particular, played a central role in creating opportunities, yet the breakthrough never arrived. ............ .

Del Piero was caught unprepared, but smiled and hugged the Turkish star before continuing to preview the match. ............

Antonio Cabrini says Juventus recent results show something is wrong Former Juventus defender Antonio Cabrini has expressed his concerns about the club’s recent performances, arguing that their 4-4 draw against Borussia Dortmund highlighted significant defensive shortcomings. Cabrini believes that a result of this nature is a sign that something is not functioning properly within the team. ............ Reflecting on Juventus’ current struggles, Cabrini emphasised the need for a return to balance and control. He said: “I expect a tight match. 4-4? That’s not football. When a team like Juve concedes three or four goals, it’s clear they’re lacking something defensively. We need to work to regain solidity. I liked the 2-0 or 1-0 results, typical of a balanced team.” Cabrini’s words underscore the contrast between Juventus’ past reputation for defensive resilience and their recent vulnerability. He stresses that victories earned through narrow margins and clean sheets often reflect a team with strong tactical structure and focus, something that appears to be missing at present. ............ Manager Igor Tudor will be eager to address these defensive lapses quickly. For Juventus to achieve their ambitions this season, they must re-establish themselves as a side capable of shutting out their opponents. Without defensive stability, even the strongest attacking displays will struggle to secure consistent victories. The recent sequence of results demonstrates the urgency of making improvements at the back. Conceding goals so frequently risks undermining the progress made earlier in the campaign, and it places additional pressure on the forwards to outscore opponents rather than controlling games. ............ .

Official: Conceiçao dropped as Tudor names Juventus squad list for Atalanta clash Juventus confirm Francisco Conceiçao won’t be available for today’s Serie A match against Atalanta. ............ Coach Igor Tudor said on Friday that the Portugal international had been dealing with minor fitness issues in previous days, so his availability for the match against Atalanta was uncertain. ............ Several sources in Italy claim that Vasilje Adzic will start as an attacking midfielder alongside Kenan Yildiz today, while Lois Openda will play as a lone striker for the Old Lady. Conceiçao only returned to action last week, scoring a goal in Juventus’ 1-1 away draw at Hellas Verona. ............ .

Tudor insists there are enough matches for his strikers to all get game time Juventus currently have at least three strikers available in its squad, excluding Arkadiusz Milik. This has prompted some observers to suggest that the club should consider playing with two strikers together in the same game, as it might allow them to make better use of their attacking options. At present, Igor Tudor alternates between Dusan Vlahovic, Jonathan David, and Lois Openda, typically selecting one of them at a time. ............ Despite the ongoing discussion, Tudor seems content with the system currently in place. He has shown no concern about potentially underusing his attacking players and is confident that there will be enough opportunities for everyone across a demanding season. He maintains that rotation is essential and that each striker will have their chance to contribute meaningfully. Tudor explained his thinking by saying: “I don’t know the answer based on the statistics. I think about it, I try, we talk, we reason, and we make decisions. You do everything a coach can. I have three strong forwards and we choose based on the games, even the new ones need to be known. There will be room for everyone, it’s a long season. I’m happy to have three strong players.” ............ As an experienced manager, Tudor is unlikely to make changes that could disrupt the stability of his team. While many would like to see two strikers deployed at once, he has chosen to rely on a system that provides consistency and tactical flexibility. By rotating his options, he ensures that each forward stays sharp, motivated, and prepared for when they are called upon. ............ .

Tudor did not learn anything new from Juventus draw against Verona Igor Tudor was not surprised by Juventus’ recent run of results, which included draws with Verona and Borussia Dortmund after a victory against Inter Milan. The Bianconeri have worked hard to maintain their unbeaten record this season, though many expected them to claim all three points against Verona last weekend. The dropped points raised questions about whether lessons could be taken from the performance, but Tudor downplayed that idea. ............ “It left us with the usual football routine, with some good and some less good things. Nothing new in particular. We’ve made a good start and are working hard. Now we’re getting to know the new players.” His comments point to a pragmatic view of the season so far, acknowledging both positives and areas to improve while emphasising that his team is still adapting to changes within the squad. ............ Juventus remain unbeaten, but every match presents a different challenge, and consistency will be crucial if they are to sustain momentum. Dropped points against Verona serve as a reminder that results cannot be taken for granted, even when expectations are high. For Tudor, the focus is on ensuring his players continue to work hard while building cohesion with the new additions to the squad. While Atalanta may pose a different kind of test compared to Verona, the manager will look to refine his side’s approach and keep their unbeaten record intact. ............ .
