Tudor set to tweak his formation against Parma: Vlahovic & Kolo Muani to start? Juventus manager Igor Tudor could unleash the attacking partnership of Dusan Vlahovic and Randal Kolo Muani against Parma. Since taking over from the sacked Thiago Motta, the Croatian implemented a 3-4-2-1 formation. Vlahovic has been the undisputed starter upfront, while Kenan Yildiz and Teun Koopmeiners have been acting as a support crew. However, the Turkish teenager suffered a knock in training while the Dutch midfielder sustained an Achilles tendon problem during last week’s victory over Lecce. ............ This situation will prompt the 46-year-old to tweak his system, adopting a 3-5-2 formation. Hence, Kolo Muani could connect with Vlahovic in attack. This would be the Frenchman’s first start under Tudor. Nicolas Gonzalez should retain his spot on the right wing following his improved displays, while Andrea Cambiaso could make his way back to the starting lineup following his injury ordeal. ............ Finally, the backline will pick itself in the absence of the injured Federico Gatti and Gleison Bremer, so Pierre Kalulu, Renato Veiga and Lloyd Kelly will certainly start at the back. ............ Juventus (3-5-2): Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Renato Veiga, Kelly; Nico Gonzalez, Locatelli, Thuram, McKennie, Cambiaso; Kolo Muani; Vlahovic .

Tudor: Juventus expecting a difficult match against Parma As there continues to be head-to-head-matchups between teams in the top six in Serie A, Juventus are set to play one of their final away games of the season Monday night when they face relegation-threatened Parma. ............ Turning the attention to his own team’s next fixture, Tudor admitted that things won’t be simple and easy against Parma, a side that enters Matchday 33 in 16th place — four points above the relegation zone — and having recorded five straight draws, including ones against league leaders Inter Milan and Fiorentina in back-to-back weekends. “We’ve had a long week of work which is a positive thing,” said Tudor, whose team has recorded seven points out of a possible nine since he took over for Thiago Motta during the March international break. “We’ve pushed hard to prepare ourselves as best we can for all the pitfalls that a team doing well can present. We’re expecting a difficult match.” ............ One issue that has transferred over from Motta’s time as manager to Tudor’s first three games has been Juventus’ ability to defend set pieces. Both of the goals that Juventus have allowed during Tudor’s time as manager — one against Roma and another against Lecce — have come off set pieces. “Set pieces? Clearly this is a focus for us, but it bears repeating that it’s a physiological issue as well,” Tudor said. “We’re lacking a bit of experience and possibly a bit of guile, and we risk paying for this on smaller details like set pieces. We’re working to accelerate growth and the boys are aware of this and willing to do what needs to be done.” ............ “In general, I see that the team is growing, increasing intensity in defense, especially when defending high up the pitch,” Tudor said. “But the positive thing is that there’s a desire to be aggressive in our compactness. I’m expecting a serious game in which we will do what we’ve practiced. Parma showed us against Inter that they are a team to pay close attention to, we mustn’t make any mistakes because they deserved that 2-2 draw.” .

Moggi does not think Juventus and Conte would ever happen again Several reports indicate that Juventus may appoint Antonio Conte as their manager at the conclusion of the current season, despite his present role at Napoli. ............ At present, Igor Tudor is in charge on an interim basis, managing the team until the season’s end, when the club is expected to make a definitive decision regarding the managerial position. ............ There is speculation among supporters and neutral observers that Tudor will not retain his role beyond this term and may be replaced by Conte. However, this perspective is not universally held. Former Juventus executive Luciano Moggi has expressed scepticism about such a scenario materialising and believes the club has missed the opportunity to secure Conte’s return. Moggi stated: “I think Conte could stay at Napoli because he has the chance to win the Scudetto. Maybe with Conte, Juventus would be in a much better position than they are now; they certainly wouldn’t have drawn as many times as Thiago Motta. There was a chance to sign him when they chose Thiago Motta. I don’t know why they didn’t sign him, but now… Conte at Juventus is a finished story.” ............ .

Preview: Parma vs. Juventus - prediction, team news, lineups Both battling for different objectives at either end of the Serie A standings, Parma and Juventus will clash at Stadio Tardini on Monday. While the Gialloblu are fighting for survival, Juve aim to secure a top-four finish and salvage something from another below-par campaign. Match preview Taking them back into the top four at Bologna's expense, Juventus edged out lowly Lecce last weekend, with first-half strikes from Kenan Yildiz and Teun Koopmeiners proving enough to claim maximum points. The Turin club conceded late on, but they ultimately held out for a 2-1 win, continuing their springtime upturn under interim coach Igor Tudor. ............ After beating both Genoa and Lecce on home turf - either side of an away draw with in-form Roma - Juve have now won eight of 13 league games in the second half of the season, and they hold their destiny within their own hands. Among seven sides still vying for two Champions League places, Tudor's team are therefore targeting a sprint to the Serie A finish line before featuring in FIFA's new Club World Cup. So, as Juve have won on their last three top-flight visits to the Tardini - already a club record - and have lost just one of their last 15 meetings with Parma, they will expect to prevail again on Monday evening. ............ Team News After both scored last week, Juventus have doubts about the availability of Koopmeiners and Yildiz - the former is struggling with an Achilles problem, while the latter suffered an impact injury in training. Since Igor Tudor took charge, Yildiz has started all three matches for the Bianconeri, but Francisco Conceicao and Randal Kolo Muani are on standby to replace the Turkish teenager if needed. Despite his recent goal drought, Dusan Vlahovic should spearhead a 3-4-2-1 formation. Parma are also one of just four teams currently in Serie A against whom the Serbian striker has yet to score (across 223 minutes in four previous meetings). Juve will head for Emilia-Romagna without long-term absentees Juan Cabal, Bremer and Arkadiusz Milik, while Federico Gatti and Samuel Mbangula are also sidelined. ............ Parma possible starting lineup: Suzuki; Vogliacco, Leoni, Valenti; Del Prato, Bernabe, Keita, Sohm, Valeri; Pellegrino, Bonny Juventus possible starting lineup: Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Veiga, Kelly; Weah, Locatelli, Thuram, McKennie; Gonzalez, Conceicao; Vlahovic We say: Parma 0-1 Juventus Having cast off the shackles, Juventus are finally finding some form, and they should have too much firepower for Parma to withstand. Though the Gialloblu have tightened up under new management, they sometimes struggle to score goals - and that could yet cost them a place in Serie A. .

Tudor: ‘Caretaker is an ugly word, every coach lives one day at a time’ Igor Tudor gives important injury updates for Juventus against Parma and insists he dislikes being called a ‘caretaker’ manager. ‘That is such an ugly word. Every coach lives one day at a time.’ It kicks off at the Stadio Tardini on Monday at 19.45 UK time (18.45 GMT). ............ Very few believe that he will have his contract extended beyond the end of this season, so does he feel more like a caretaker or a coach? “I reply the way I always have done, that it’s such an ugly word,” said the Croatian in his press conference. “When a coach arrives, he can be fired even if he’s got a five-year contract all signed. Every coach lives one day at a time. You can’t plan too far ahead, you build the future today, you take lessons from the past, but thinking about the future too much creates nothing except anxiety. ............ “We had a few problems, Kenan Yildiz had some issues and worked a little bit with the group, so we’ll see tomorrow. Teun Koopmeiners also did a bit, but he is a major doubt to feature in the match. We are still missing Mbangula and Gatti,” said Tudor. ............ “We’ve been working together for 2-3 weeks now and the squad is improving, we increased the intensity to win back the ball quickly. We need to be aggressive and united, that is an objective.” ............ “I don’t expect any step, that’s what you said. I just expect a great performance. Parma pressed Inter high to fight back and get a point, so there’s no guarantee they’ll be passive and invite us forward.” Finally, Tudor said he was impressed with defender Renato Veiga, who arrived in January on loan from Chelsea. “He is 22 and has the character of a 30-year-old. He’s quick, has quality, communicates with his teammates, and it’s rare people get past him. He can improve in certain things, we’re still working, but he has a bright future ahead of him and I told him it all depends on him.” .

What sort of offer would persuade Juventus to sell Federico Gatti? Federico Gatti continues to be one of the most dependable performers in the current Juventus squad, and his consistency has not gone unnoticed. The Italian defender, who has featured prominently under multiple managers at the club, is reportedly attracting growing interest from abroad. ............ Gatti has embraced life in Turin and remains committed to Juventus, but interest from the Premier League could complicate the club’s efforts to keep him. Newcastle United and Everton are among the clubs keeping a close eye on the Italy international, and there is growing speculation that either side could make a move for him in the summer. ............ While Juventus are keen to retain his services, they may be open to a sale under the right conditions. The report suggests that a bid in the region of €25 million could be enough to persuade the Bianconeri to part ways with the centre-back. ............ While €25 million may appear to be a reasonable valuation, Juventus must ensure that they are in a position to bring in a defender who can match or exceed Gatti’s contributions. Until that certainty is secured, retaining him should remain a priority. . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/what-sort-of-offer-would-persuade-juventus-to-sell-federico-gatti/

Juventus could offer two players to Newcastle United for Tonali Juventus’ reported interest in Sandro Tonali appears to be more substantial than previously assumed, as speculation surrounding a potential move continues to persist. The ongoing rumours suggest that the Bianconeri’s pursuit of the midfielder may be a serious long-term ambition rather than a fleeting link. ............ Since joining Newcastle United, Tonali has delivered performances that have further elevated his reputation. The Premier League club regard him as a crucial part of their future and one of their most valuable assets. ............ Despite Newcastle’s strong position and the lack of any financial pressure to sell, Juventus are reportedly still keen to bring Tonali back to Italy. The Bianconeri are exploring a deal that would involve offering players as part of the transfer package to reduce the overall fee. With Tonali’s valuation believed to be around €70 million, Juventus are said to be considering including both Dusan Vlahovic and Douglas Luiz to help offset the cost. It remains to be seen whether Newcastle would entertain such an arrangement, especially given Tonali’s status within the team. However, a key factor could be the midfielder’s own stance on the matter. Should he express a desire to return to Serie A, the club may be more inclined to consider negotiations. ............ .

Tudor could be forced to replace Yildiz in the team to face Parma Kenan Yildiz has emerged as one of the most promising performers in the Juventus squad since Igor Tudor took charge as manager. The Turkish youngster’s talent has never been in doubt, but under the previous two managers, he struggled to produce consistent displays that matched his potential. ............ The Bianconeri may have to manage without him in their upcoming match against Parma. The youngster sustained an injury during a training session earlier in the week and is currently still sidelined. While the issue is not thought to be serious, there remains a possibility that he will be unavailable for the fixture. Given his rising status in the squad, Yildiz’s absence would be a significant setback. ............ Yildiz has become a vital component of Tudor’s side, and his form could prove pivotal in the closing stages of the season. Juventus will undoubtedly hope to have him back on the pitch as soon as possible. ............ .

“He has brought the game back” Pundit impressed with the job Igor Tudor is doing Pundit Antonio Di Gennaro has expressed his admiration for the impact Igor Tudor has made since taking over on the Juventus bench, as the team strives to salvage its season with only a few matches remaining. ............ The shift in atmosphere and playing style has not gone unnoticed, with fans beginning to see signs of the assertive, attacking football they had long been hoping for. Tudor’s approach appears to have brought renewed purpose and clarity to the side, even if the task ahead remains challenging. ............ Antonio Di Gennaro commented on Tudor’s early influence, stating: “Tudor is working very well at Juventus, he has brought the game back, because against Lecce I saw 75 minutes of vertical play and the two goals are truly two goals of great workmanship, vertical play, first-time, insertions. Koopmeiners has returned to scoring so he is doing the work they asked of him and then I don’t know if he will stay or not.” ............ .

3-1 Guerra, Cudrig e ancora Guerra (J) - Fella su rigore (C)

Addio a Giulio Drago: è morto il portiere della Juve di Trapattoni Il mondo del calcio italiano piange la scomparsa di Giulio Drago, ex portiere protagonista della storica promozione dell’Empoli in Serie A nella stagione 1985/86 e cresciuto calcisticamente nel settore giovanile della Juventus. Drago è morto all’età di 63 anni all’ospedale San Giuseppe di Empoli, dove era ricoverato da diversi giorni. ......... Tra il 1980 e il 1983, gioca con la Primavera bianconera e viene convocato anche dalla prima squadra bianconera guidata da Giovanni Trapattoni, ricoprendo spesso il ruolo di terzo portiere. ......... Proprio il club bianconero ha voluto ricordarlo con un post sui social: "Riposa in pace, Giulio". https://www.tuttosport.com/news/calcio/serie-a/juventus/2025/04/19-140084284/addio_a_giulio_drago_morto_il_portiere_della_juve_di_trapattoni

Juventus is making a decision on the future of top youngster Vasilije Adzic joined Juventus at the beginning of the current season, widely regarded as one of European football’s most promising young talents. ............ Unfortunately, his initial progress was hampered by several injuries, which rendered him unavailable for selection over a sustained period. As a result, Juventus made the decision to assign him to their Next Gen squad in order to regain fitness and form. ............ Since moving to the Next Gen team, Adzic has delivered a series of impressive performances, consistently demonstrating a level of quality that stands out among his peers. His displays have reportedly prompted the club to consider a return to senior-team duties. ............ The Bianconeri are currently evaluating the best course of action for Adzic’s development. The source confirms that the club recognises the importance of consistent game time at a higher level, in order to accelerate his growth as a professional footballer. Adzic is a terrific talent, and a loan move may be the most appropriate next step if he is not able to secure a place in the current first team. Keeping him in the Next Gen side for an extended period may not provide the level of challenge required for his development. ............ .

Three Juventus options to replace Yildiz against Parma in Serie A There are still doubts over Kenan Yildiz’s availability for Juventus’s upcoming Serie A match against Parma on Monday after he suffered an impact injury during training earlier in the week, which could leave Igor Tudor with a big call to make over the weekend. ............ The Turkiye international is not expected to be ruled out for a significant period of time, but there has been no confirmation either way as to whether he will be available or not to face Parma on Monday. If he is not considered fit enough to start, then Tudor will have a number of different options to replace him. The Bianconeri head coach has gone with a 3-4-2-1 shape over his first three games since taking over from Thiago Motta at the end of March. Yildiz has started in all three. ............ There is a possibility that Tudor goes with a pairing of Koopmeiners and Nico Gonzalez if Yildiz is unable to play. ............ There is also an option to deploy Randal Kolo Muani in one of the attacking roles behind Vlahovic. The France international has not started in any of Juve’s matches since Tudor took charge. Weston McKennie often started in an advanced midfield role for Juventus under Thiago Motta, and while the USMNT also hasn’t started under Tudor yet, he provides another option for the trequartista roles. ............ .

Juventus confirm sponsor talks, as the figures behind new Jeep agreement revealed Juventus admitted they’re in talks with a new main shirt sponsor, all but confirming earlier rumours that revealed a new agreement between the club and Jeep. The Bianconeri have been without a main sponsor since the start of the season, when their 12-year collaboration with the American automobile brand came to an end. Instead, the team has been displaying the “Save the Children” banner since the start of the season as a goodwill initiative to make up for the lack of a commercial partner. Nevertheless, circulating reports in the Italian media revealed that the Jeep logo is about to make a comeback on the club’s shirt, with Exor CEO John Elkann personally endorsing the accord between the two companies he owns (Juventus and Stellantis). ............ The new agreement with Jeep will be finalised ahead of the FIFA Club World Cup which will kick off in mid-June. The Bianconeri are also expected to display another sponsor on their shirts in the shape of “Visit Detroit”, thus yielding extra income. As for Jeep, the source expects the agreement to be worth around 25 million euros per season. This number pale in comparison to the previous figures which had reached 45 million euros by the end of their initial accord. ............ .

Juventus unsure about signing 30m winger this summer Francisco Conceição is expected to leave Juventus at the end of the season, with the winger no longer considered part of the club’s long-term plans following the departure of former manager Thiago Motta. The Portuguese youngster, who joined the Bianconeri on loan from FC Porto, was one of Motta’s preferred attacking options and had been in line for a permanent move to Turin. However, the landscape has changed considerably under new boss Igor Tudor. ............ Tudor’s arrival has, however, cast doubt over Conceição’s future. Since taking over managerial duties, the Croatian tactician has implemented a new system that relies less on traditional wingers and more on structured positional play and defensive balance. As a result, Conceição has found opportunities limited under the new regime, with his playing style seemingly at odds with Tudor’s tactical preferences. ............ Juventus are now preparing to send Conceição back to Porto once his loan expires in the summer. The report states that the club are unwilling to invest in a player who does not feature in Tudor’s vision for the team moving forward, particularly as they look to reshape the squad to better suit the manager’s approach. The decision underlines Juventus’ commitment to backing Tudor as they prepare for the 2025/26 campaign. The board is expected to support the manager in the transfer market, targeting players more compatible with his style of play while facilitating the exit of those deemed surplus to requirements. ............ .
