Juventus has announced that Thiago Motta will take over as the club's manager, replacing Massimiliano Allegri. Motta has signed a contract to keep him at the helm until 2027.

Motta arrives in Turin after an impressive season with Bologna, a fellow Serie A team. Under his leadership, Bologna secured a spot in the Champions League for the first time since the 1964-65 season. In his first season, Bologna finished ninth in Serie A. Motta then led them to a fifth-place finish, their highest standing since 1981, earning them a return to the Champions League after many years.

The departure of Massimiliano Allegri

The decision to part ways with Allegri came soon after Juventus won the Coppa Italia. Despite this victory, Allegri's second term at Juventus was filled with inconsistent performances and off-field issues. One notable incident occurred during a crucial match against Atalanta when Allegri was sent off for his angry reaction to a refereeing decision. This behavior, including tearing off his tie and jacket in frustration, was deemed incompatible with Juventus' values.

Allegri's first stint at Juventus was very successful. He won five consecutive Serie A titles from 2014 to 2019 and led the team to the Champions League finals in 2015 and 2017. However, his return in 2021 brought a different success, with the Coppa Italia being the only trophy during his second time in charge.

Motta expressed his excitement about joining Juventus on the club's website. He said, “I am really happy to begin a new chapter at the helm of a great club like Juventus. I thank the owners and the management, who can be sure of my ambition to keep the Juventus flag flying high and to please the fans.”
