Toulouse president Damien Comolli could become a key figure on Juventus’ new-look board, as the Bianconeri prepare for a major overhaul that is also expected to include the appointment of a new head coach following Igor Tudor’s departure.

 

Comolli, who previously held roles at Arsenal, Tottenham, and Liverpool, was linked with a move to Milan last season. However, Gerry Cardinale ultimately decided against hiring him, opting to keep the Rossoneri’s management team intact. ............

 

Speculation is growing around Comolli’s potential arrival at the Allianz Stadium, where he would take on a prominent role in the club’s hierarchy alongside Juventus legend Giorgio Chiellini. ............

 

Together, Comolli and Chiellini would be tasked with shaping a new era at Juventus — and one of their first key decisions could involve appointing Antonio Conte. ...........

Juventus have officially announced the appointment of former Toulouse President Damien Comolli as the club’s new General Manager. Here is a look at his career to date and a reminder of everything you need to know about him.

 

Comolli grew up playing youth football in the academy of AS Monaco before going on to accept a job on the coaching staff with the club’s U16 side. ............

 

Comolli was on the books at Monaco under Arsene Wenger’s reign, and the pair would later team up again in England with Arsenal. Comolli moved to North London in 1996 and spent seven seasons as a European scout for the Gunners. ............

 

Comolli has been credited with bringing the likes of Kolo Toure, Emmanuel Eboue and Gael Clichy to the Premier League from his time at Arsenal.

 

The list of names that Comolli has introduced to England does not stop there, however. He was also heavily involved in the transfer that brought future Ballon d’Or winner Luka Modric to White Hart Lane while working as director of football at Tottenham in 2008. ............

 

And, in his role as director of football strategy with Liverpool from 2010 onwards, Comolli was cited as being the man who brought both Luis Suarez and Andy Carroll to Anfield on deadline day of the January 2011 transfer window. ............

 

Barring a brief spell with Galatasaray, Comolli took a long period out of the game after his Liverpool job, before being appointed as director of football with Toulouse, where he served as President until last week.

 

Following promotion from Ligue 2 in 2021-22, Toulouse went on to win the Coupe de France in 2023, which resulted in a spot in the Europa League for 2023-24. ............

New Juventus General Manager Damien Comolli will begin his tenure at the Allianz Stadium today, meeting coach Igor Tudor and discussing transfer strategies with Giorgio Chiellini. ............

 

Comolli is currently at Continassa and will actively start working today. ............

 

The coach’s contract was extended until 2026 after achieving Champions League qualification, and his chances of remaining in charge for the 2025-26 season are increasing, but will also depend on the results during the Club World Cup and his relationship with Comolli. ............

 

The priorities are players currently on loan at the club, which the Old Lady wants to keep for the Club World Cup.

 

Negotiations with PSG for Randal Kolo Muani and Chelsea for Renato Veiga are ongoing, while Francisco Conceiçao is expected to remain with the club, extending his loan from Porto.

 

Juventus remain interested in Jonathan David and have offered the Canada international a €6m-a-year contract plus €2m add-ons until 2030. ............

Comolli talks winning ‘obsession,’ approach at first Juventus press conference

Juventus_Xtra on X: "🎙️ Damien #Comolli in the press conference:  https://t.co/vr0AbbCasn" / X

 

 

Damien Comolli wasted little time Tuesday saying who Juventus’ manager next season would be, with the club deciding to stick with Igor Tudor after he joined them on an interim basis in mid-March. But there was still plenty of curiosity about what Juventus’ new general manager had to say even beyond his opening remarks.

 

Mostly because up until this point, the 52-year-old Comolli was a relative unknown in the circles of those who are very focused on Serie A. ............

 

At his introductory press conference, Comolli hit on a variety of topics — from his approach to building a roster and approaching the sport in 2025, how data influences his decision making process, what Giorgio Chiellini’s role in this new-look front office will be and the remaining spots that need to be filled alongside him. ............

 

“I think identity is fundamental in the current sports industry. We are in the entertainment business, we gift emotions, but it is important to create a strong identity. The “moneyball” model aims to rationalise a very irrational industry like football. This model has helped me make the right, considered choices, based on careful evaluation. We mustn’t be afraid of this association between data and football because it can prove useful. My obsession is to try to win, but also to try to improve every day to gain an advantage over other teams, and for me, the best way to do that is to use data.” ............

 

“I have been working with data for 25 years now, I have a background in data analysis. I have never come across a more rational approach than that linked to data analysis. We will use data in different areas; it will guide us in measuring the strength of our team compared to our opponents, but data will also help us manage our business strategy. It is fundamental at all levels: it is part of my life and I know exactly how it works because I have used it in my previous experiences.” ............

 

“We will have a Sporting Director who will be responsible for transfer dealings and will also be part of the committee mentioned above, with a focus on the youth sector. There will also be a Technical Director who will have other responsibilities and will also report to me.” ............

 

“Giorgio Chiellini will have a strategic role, not just a role focused on the pitch but also off it. He will also be a key figure in the commercial sphere. There are several aspects that we are working on together. Giorgio and I will move from one area to another and discuss things on a daily basis. We have also set up a Football Strategy Committee, of which Giorgio will be a member.” ............

 

“We talked about the current squad, obviously taking Tudor’s approach into account. There are certainly adjustments to be made, but I can tell you that there will be no radical changes.” ............

 

“The first time I met the owners, I said that I would do everything to try to win every competition we played in. That doesn’t mean we’ll succeed, but that has to be the ambition. When you wear the Juventus jersey, you have to take to the pitch to win every time. I want to convey my passion to the club, but I know it’s already there and I’ll make sure it stays strong.”

Juventus set to strengthen squad following Club World Cup campaign

Comolli confirms Tudor will be Juventus' manager for the 2025-26 season -  Black & White & Read All Over

 

 

Following their exit from the Club World Cup, Juventus are turning their attention to the transfer market, aiming to strengthen their squad and end the current season on a high note. With Igor Tudor now confirmed as manager for the next term, the club is in a position to plan decisively for both the immediate and long-term future.

 

The Bianconeri are expected to make strategic moves in the market. ............

 

The goal is not to completely rebuild the squad but rather to strengthen key areas and ensure that the team is well-equipped to compete effectively under Tudor’s leadership. Juventus are keen to find players who can thrive in the system he intends to implement, and any new arrivals must align with this vision. ............

 

Damien Comolli addressed the club’s strategy: “I think the first thing we need to do is analyse the team. We have a solid base of excellent players. They need to understand that they can win and they need to learn how to win. In the market we will try to improve.” ............

 

Juventus are not simply looking to sign players for the sake of it. The club intends to approach the market with a clear plan and a focus on acquiring individuals who will add value to the team in meaningful ways. Comolli’s comments reflect a desire for thoughtful recruitment that prioritises quality and suitability over quick fixes. ............

Sabatini explains why Comolli is ‘better than Giuntoli’

Comolli talks winning 'obsession,' approach at first Juventus press  conference - Black & White & Read All Over

 

 

Italian journalist Sandro Sabatini believes that new Juventus General Director Damien Comolli is an upgrade on Cristiano Giuntoli. ............

 

Juventus replaced the departing director with Comolli, and even entrusted him with more responsibilities, hand him the title of ‘General Director’.

 

Contrary to Giuntoli, the Frenchman has been taking things relatively slowly on the market, refusing to conduct another summer transfer frenzy. ............

 

The Italian TV presenter believes that Comolli has already proved to be an upgrade on Giuntoli, despite the lack of action on the market.

 

“Juventus is trying to make up for a transfer market that cost €200 million last year, but despite the big cost, the team is weaker than it was a year ago.”

 

“But now I see a transfer market full of good intentions. They’re doing a better job. Comolli, in my opinion, is better than Giuntoli, but we’ll see what happens in the end. It’s still early days.” ............

 

“The starters are Conceicao on one side and Yildiz on the other. Sancho has missed a lot of chances, in my opinion he wouldn’t start at Juventus.”

Comolli compares Juventus to Liverpool, reveals ‘agreement’ with Vlahovic

Juventus, inizia l'era Comolli: il dirigente francese ha firmato con i  bianconeri, è ufficiale | Goal.com Italia

 

 

Juventus General Manager Damien explained the similarities between the Serie A giants and his former employers, Liverpool.

 

The 52-year-old worked for a host of European clubs in his career, occupying various roles. ............

 

The Frenchman is now the person in charge of the club’s sporting department and has also been given extended authority over other sectors.

 

Comolli has been entrusted with great responsibility, and he insists that Juve’s main objective is to return to winning ways as fast as possible.

 

“We’re a team that can win again, we have great potential,” said the Juventus official in his interview.

 

“We’re not setting ourselves deadlines, but we have an excellent foundation.” ............

 

Comolli was asked to compare Juventus to another club, and he could only think about Liverpool where he had served as a sporting director between 2010 and 2011.

 

“I would say Liverpool, because of its great appeal. Working here isn’t difficult. I’m not promising to win straight away, but we’re working towards it.” ............

 

“Vlahovic can leave for the right offer. We’ve had discussions in the United States, and we’re in agreement.”

 

“Kolo Muani wants to return to play for us, and we’re working on it. We’re not worried about having David and Vlahovic together; we’ll see.” ............

Comolli reveals latest on Weah, slams Juventus outcast: “He disrespected his teammates”

Comolli sbalordito da ciò che ha trovato alla Juve: "Solo al Liverpool ho  visto una cosa del genere"

 

 

Juventus General Manager Damien Comolli provided some transfer updates on Timothy Weah, and didn’t mince his words when discussing Douglas Luiz.

 

The Frenchman is now the man in charge of the club’s transfer business, supported by the newly-appointed Technical Director, Francois Modesto. ............

 

One of the topics discussed was the future of Timothy Weah, who already has one foot out the door. ............

 

“Tim wants to go to Marseille, but in football, you can’t just pick a team, because if the right offer doesn’t come, you’re left on the sidelines. And the offer hasn’t arrived yet,” asserted Comolli in his interview.

 

“Juventus is a very enticing club; several agents and players call me. After all, we are Juventus and we want to get back to winning ways.” ............

 

The 52-year-old also tackled Douglas Luiz’s unsavoury situation.

 

“The player disrespected his teammates. Everyone must respect the shirt they wear. He then apologised to everyone, players, coaches, and to me as well.” ............

Calcio e Finanza - Comolli alla Juventus, poteri e limiti: quanto può  spendere sul mercato il direttore generale bianconero | Goal.com Italia

 

 

Juventus are determined to bring Randal Kolo Muani back to the club, but Alfredo Pedullà warns the Bianconeri about a ‘financial suicide’ if Dusan Vlahovic doesn’t leave. ............

 

Now, the Bianconeri also signed Jonathan David as a free agent this summer, but are struggling to find a new club for Vlahovic. ............

 

“Pundits may say, as I’ve heard, that it wouldn’t be a problem for Juve to keep Dusan [Vlahovic], adding that he ‘always scores goals.’ Sure, easy to say when it’s not their money,” wrote Pedullà.

 

“From my perspective, it wouldn’t be just an economic disaster with few precedents; no one can deny that. It would also be a sporting disaster. Not by chance, Igor Tudor only wants Randal Kolo Muani for tactical reasons as he would pair well with Jonathan David, even if it means paying €60m as PSG demand. Fine, imagine, David plus Kolo, plus Dusan: a fantastic trio, but a financial suicide and finances are the true Scudetto for every club.” ............

Juventus general manager Damien Comolli has confirmed that the Bianconeri have reached an agreement with Premier League side Nottingham Forest for the sale of Next Gen graduate Nicolo Savona. ............

 

Speaking to Sky Sport Italia from the draw, Comolli confirmed: “We have just reached an agreement with Nottingham Forest for Savona, we can confirm it. The deal was closed this afternoon.” ............

 

Reports earlier in the week confirmed that Juventus had turned down an initial proposal in the region of €11m-€12m from Nottingham Forest, and that the Old Lady were instead holding out for a fee in the region of €18m.  ............

The big change in strategy Comolli brought to Juventus this summer

Damien Comolli: Juventus Harus Belajar Kembali Cara Menang sebagai Klub -  Sportlink News

 

 

Damien Comolli assumed responsibility for overseeing Juventus’s key decisions two months ago and has already directed a significant shift in the club’s transfer strategy.

 

Brought in following the troubled tenure of Cristiano Giuntoli, Comolli was identified as the figure capable of reshaping the club’s direction. ............

 

Historically, Juventus have built its dominance by targeting the best talent within Italy. This strategy often involved acquiring key players from rival Serie A clubs, reinforcing their own squad but also generating rivalries across the league. As the most successful side in Italian football history, Juventus’s appetite for domestic acquisitions became part of its identity.

 

However, Comolli has introduced a markedly different philosophy. During the most recent transfer window, he did not approach any Italian club to sign their players. Instead, his focus was on recruiting talent from abroad, prioritising imports into Serie A rather than destabilising domestic rivals. ............

 

While the long-term success of this strategy will be judged by results on the pitch, it represents a decisive break from the past. Juventus are signalling that it can remain competitive by building a more internationally sourced squad rather than relying primarily on poaching from within Italy. ............

Why PSG’s Nasser Al-Khelaifi is furious with Comolli over Kolo Muani

Ci avete preso in giro, me ne ricorderò": furia Al-Khelaifi contro Comolli  per il caso Kolo Muani, la ricostruzione - Calcio | Tribuna.com

 

 

Juventus supporters were left stunned when Randal Kolo Muani completed a transfer to Tottenham on deadline day, despite their club having spent months in negotiations to secure his return. The French striker had featured prominently for the Bianconeri during the second half of last season, when he joined on loan from Paris Saint-Germain, and was also part of the squad that took part in the Club World Cup. ............

 

Events took a dramatic turn on deadline day, however, when Juventus abandoned negotiations to sign Muani and instead secured the services of Lois Openda. This unexpected shift forced Muani to accept Tottenham’s offer, a move that surprised many observers and left Juventus fans disappointed.

 

The outcome not only shocked supporters but also reportedly infuriated PSG, who had expected Juventus to finalise the transfer after months of discussions. For PSG, which had accommodated Muani’s preference to move to Turin, the breakdown in negotiations was seen as a breach of trust. ............

 

The relationship between the two clubs has been seriously strained by the episode. The report states that PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi was furious with Juventus director Damien Comolli, accusing him of mishandling the negotiations. It was alleged that Comolli altered the terms of Juventus’ offer on deadline day, a move PSG rejected outright. The French club is said to have felt that their counterparts were “making fun” of them by shifting their stance so late in the process. ............

Expert explains how Juventus has solved their balance sheet problems

Busy Summer For Juventus As Damien Comolli Confirms Igor Tudor Stay

 

 

When Andrea Agnelli and the Juventus board resigned following the capital gains scandal, they left behind a club in considerable financial difficulty. The Bianconeri had spent aggressively in previous years with the expectation that future revenues would balance the books. However, the outbreak of COVID-19 created unforeseen challenges, significantly reducing matchday income and commercial revenue streams. This disruption left the club struggling to meet several of its financial obligations. ............

 

One of the most visible remnants of the old board’s approach is the sizeable contract awarded to Dusan Vlahovic. The Serbian striker is earning €1 million net per month during this final year of his agreement, placing a significant burden on the wage bill. While his performances on the pitch remain valuable, his salary is symbolic of the financial risks Juventus took during the previous administration.

 

Despite these challenges, Juventus have shown signs of recovery. The club has gradually stabilised its accounts through careful management of resources and a more measured approach to transfers. The emphasis has shifted towards building a sustainable squad, investing in younger players with growth potential, and avoiding the excessive commitments that led to earlier difficulties. ............

 

Financial expert Fabrizio Bava recently offered his assessment of the club’s progress. He noted, “The club can be satisfied with the transfer market. The costs on the balance sheet have been very minimal, and the market has essentially been self-financed through sales. The outlook for the future is positive; Vlahovic’s amortisation is in its final year, and next year Juve will have €19.5 million less, as will Arthur in 2027. With these premises, painful sacrifices will not be necessary in the future, and players who represent investments in terms of age and prospects have arrived.” ............

Massimo Pavan joins the debate of the sour PSG-Juventus relationship

Furia Al Khelaifi sulla Juve: dura telefonata a Comolli. Kolo Muani ora  diventa un caso

 

 

Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain’s relationship has reportedly deteriorated following the collapse of discussions regarding Randal Kolo Muani in the final stages of the transfer window. The Bianconeri had engaged in lengthy negotiations to secure the Frenchman, having been impressed by his performances during the second half of the previous season. ............

 

In a surprising turn of events on deadline day, Juventus chose instead to complete the signing of Lois Openda. This sudden change of direction left Paris Saint-Germain to arrange a loan move for Muani to Tottenham. The outcome was unexpected, as discussions between the clubs had given every indication that a deal was close to conclusion.

 

The decision has reportedly left Paris Saint-Germain frustrated, particularly as confidence had been high that their negotiations with Juventus would produce a successful outcome. The abrupt shift in strategy by the Italian club has been cited as the cause of a strain in relations, with suggestions that future dealings between the two institutions may now be more challenging to pursue. ............

 

Commenting on the situation, Massimo Pavan defended Juventus’s conduct. He stated, “I don’t understand what PSG wants. Juventus made an offer. If they wanted to give him five million with no strings attached, they could have done so. I think if they had offered him at the start of the transfer window, Juventus would have accepted immediately.”

 

Pavan further argued that Juventus had made genuine efforts to bring Muani to Turin, but that Paris Saint-Germain’s own approach contributed to the failure of the transfer. He stressed that the Bianconeri did what they could under the circumstances, pointing out that the timing and conditions proposed by their counterparts complicated the process. ............

Giovanni Cobolli Gigli is impressed with the work Damien Comolli is doing

Damien Comolli made an important change of strategy to Juventus' mercato  this summer: No transfer activity with clubs in Serie A. For the first time  in several years, the Bianconeri did not

 

 

Damien Comolli assumed a significant role at Juventus this summer after the club decided to part ways with Cristiano Giuntoli. The change in leadership came following a disappointing 2024/2025 campaign, a season regarded as disastrous under the former sporting director. Juventus ultimately concluded that Giuntoli was not the right figure to address the difficulties the club had encountered, prompting a new direction. ............

 

Former Juventus president Giovanni Cobolli Gigli, who held office between 2006 and 2009, has also observed the recent developments closely. Speaking about Comolli’s early months in charge, he expressed his approval of the new sporting director’s approach. He remarked, “I don’t know him, but I’m growing fond of him because of the similarity in our last names. He did a good job, and I liked the fact that he didn’t get caught in the Kolo Muani deal. The same player, then, was sold to Tottenham a few hours later on more favourable terms. The structure is working, and I don’t think Comolli himself has all the knowledge of the Juventus world yet, and there’s definitely someone advising him.” ............

 

The consensus within the club and among observers is that Juventus have handled this transfer window effectively. The reinforcements acquired appear better suited to the needs of the team, and there is a renewed sense of belief that the coming season will bring greater stability and stronger performances. The work undertaken over the summer has been described as a collective achievement, though it is widely recognised that Comolli deserves significant credit for overseeing these changes. ............

“These are lies” – Comolli rubbishes controversy around Tottenham transfer

Comolli spiega il mercato Juve: "Mi hanno spronato a spingermi oltre. Ci  sentiamo più forti"

 

 

Randal Kolo Muani joined Tottenham on loan from Paris Saint-Germain on deadline day and there’s no shortage of theories about why Juventus didn’t sign him after months of trying to. ............

 

The Italian press are convinced that Juventus simply refused the move on favourable terms late in the window, landing Lois Openda instead.

 

In France, they believe that PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi criticised Juve after Kolo Muani joined Tottenham, making it clear that they have been difficult to deal with.

 

Old Lady managing director Damien Comolli spoke to reporters at a press conference on Thursday.

 

He denied claims from France about Al-Khelaifi’s anger.

 

“I’ve read articles about discussions with the PSG president, but it’s false. We didn’t speak, these are lies. Don’t take what you read for granted.”

Comolli also made it clear that Juve are happy with how they operated in the transfer window, even if they missed out on the 26-year-old.

 

“We finished the transfer window feeling stronger. Then Bremer and Cabal returned, Dusan remained, and he proved his worth in the last few matches. We believe the team can be competitive.” ............

Juventus preparing vital Board meeting: New role for Comolli & capital increase

Mercato Juventus : les trois priorités de Damien Comolli

 

 

Juventus are bracing themselves for what should be an instrumental Board of Directors meeting on Friday, with several important matters to sort out.

 

The club’s directors will review and discuss the financial statement for the 2024/25 season, which will later have to be approved by the general assembly. ............

 

The report claims that Juventus are planning to appoint Damien Comolli as the club’s new CEO. The 52-year-old joined the club last June in the role of General Manager.

 

The former Liverpool and Spurs director was in charge of the club’s summer transfer campaign, and his work has been appreciated by the ownership, as he managed to offload some unwanted players while recruiting new signings for relatively affordable prices. ............

 

Comolli would thus replace Maurizio Scanavino who has limited experience in football. The latter has been associated with the club’s majority owners, EXOR, for several years, so he’ll be expected to be relocated within the holding company’s orbit.

 

Moreover, the source also expects Giorgio Chiellini to join the board, albeit his role remains to be defined. The legendary defender returned to the club earlier this year and has been entrusted with a more prominent role in recent months.

 

The Board could issue a capital increase worth €110-€120 million. The ownership has already injected €30 million to help balance the club’s accounts.

Comolli tipped to take Juventus back to its glory days

Juventus, inizia l'era Comolli: il dirigente francese ha firmato con i  bianconeri, è ufficiale | Goal.com Italia

 

 

Damien Comolli took over as general manager of Juventus at the end of last season and has already had a significant influence on the club’s direction. The Bianconeri endured a difficult campaign, only just managing to secure a place in the top four, which raised questions about leadership and decision-making at the senior level.

 

Juventus see Comolli as a figure capable of restoring their former strength, combining technical expertise with an ability to manage resources effectively. ............

Football agent Federico Pastorello has expressed confidence in Comolli’s work so far and highlighted his qualities. He remarked: “He introduced himself to Juve in an elegant, discreet manner, with the right profile. Almost… Savoyard, I dare say. I appreciate his integrity and his style: Juve style, indeed. He has great managerial skills and technical expertise. Beyond the results, which I understand are what matters most to the fans, he is working very well in restoring the finances. He is a guarantee. Juve, under his management, will return to being the real Juve.”

 

These comments reflect the respect Comolli has quickly earned since taking charge, not only for his professionalism and composure but also for his focus on ensuring the club’s financial health. In a climate where results dominate discussions, his broader contributions to rebuilding the foundations of the club are being recognised. ............

 

As one of the world’s most prestigious clubs, Juventus are under constant scrutiny when it comes to key appointments, and Comolli’s early months suggest he is meeting the challenge decisively. His willingness to act boldly has been evident, and supporters will now look to see how his transfer decisions translate into performances on the pitch. ............

Juventus is set to undergo a major board reshuffle

Rivoluzione Juve, arriva un nuovo presidente. E Comolli diventerà Ad

 

 

Juventus could be on the verge of appointing a new chief executive officer in the coming weeks, with a familiar figure set to take on the role. The development marks another significant moment in the club’s ongoing evolution as it seeks both stability and growth.

 

Maurizio Scanavino has served as the club’s CEO since early 2023, following the resignation of the Andrea Agnelli-led board. ............

 

However Scanavino is now set to step aside, with Damien Comolli expected to succeed him as CEO. Comolli has already been serving as general manager since the end of last season and has reportedly impressed with his performance in the role. His promotion would signal continuity, while also introducing a new strategic direction for the club.

 

The report further notes that Scanavino is unlikely to depart from the wider corporate landscape altogether. Instead, he is poised to assume another senior position within the Exor group, leveraging his strong credentials as one of the most respected executives in business. ............

 

Comolli’s anticipated elevation to CEO reflects both his growing influence and the trust placed in his decision-making. His tenure as general manager has already seen him play a central role in shaping the club’s operations, with expectations that he will appoint a new sporting director in the coming months. Such a move would underscore his vision for Juventus and his determination to guide the team towards long-term success.

 

Juventus have benefited from a period of stability under Scanavino’s leadership, and there is confidence within the organisation that Comolli will ensure a smooth transition. His recent contributions have been well-received, and his ability to oversee important decisions has strengthened his case for taking on greater responsibilities. ............
