Juventus Extends Coach Igor Tudor Contract Until 2027

Juventus has extended Croatian coach Igor Tudor's contract until June 30, 2027, with an option to extend to 2028, solidifying his role following his impactful tenure since March. Tudor took over after the dismissal of Thiago Motta, leading Juventus to secure a UEFA Champions League spot by finishing fourth in Serie A, losing only one league match under his management. The club's new general manager, Damien Comolli, expressed confidence in Tudor, especially after the club's failed attempt to rehire Antonio Conte. Tudor's contract extension comes ahead of Juventus' participation in the FIFA Club World Cup in the United States, where they will face Al Ain, Wydad AC, and Manchester City in the group stage. Having managed several European clubs before, Tudor began his coaching career at Juventus as an assistant and has achieved 5 wins, 3 draws, and 1 loss in 9 matches with the team. Juventus is among the few Serie A clubs retaining their coach amid widespread managerial changes this season.
