After the weekend defeat, Spalletti contacted Elkann himself to debate the long run and ambitions, and based on Italian sources, he additionally desires to debate Comolli’s function with the proprietor.

There may be nonetheless one spherical left within the 2025/26 Serie A season, however for now it appears like Juventus will miss out on the beginning of the Champions League, which implies that no progress has been made within the lifetime of the membership. ACTUALLY! Somewhat, the Outdated Girl strikes backwards. In such circumstances, folks rightly look askance on the administration, as a result of the success and failure of a membership begins with them.

The assembly between Spalletti and Elkann will have an effect on a number of issues, certainly one of which is the way forward for the grasp, if Elkann considers that the 67-year-old specialist is just not the proper particular person for the job, he’ll go away voluntarily. In the event that they get previous that, Spalletti would additionally like to speak about Damien Comolli, who’s the membership’s CEO.

In keeping with Tuttosport editors, Spalletti has 3 fundamental issues with Comolli.

The primary, which most likely many Juve followers agree with, is extreme affect in transfers, and opinions don’t at all times agree as regards to transfers. Spalletti wished a striker in January and the membership searched the market, however a number of pursuits and negotiations died down, and eventually Jeremie Boga arrived. The Ivorian striker is an effective signing, however he isn’t a striker and was not in a position to fill the void left by Vlahovic. In keeping with the information, despite the fact that Ottolini was appointed to the put up of sports activities director, it was Comolli and Modesto who compelled the Boga switch.

We now have arrived at Spalletti’s second drawback, Francois Modesto. The function of the French technical director is just not actually outlined and it’s not recognized what he’s liable for, however he nonetheless has an affect on transfers. True, he’ll most likely go away on the finish of the season, so Spalletti not has to take care of him.

The third drawback can be linked to at least one particular person, Riccardo Pecini. Pecini is the pinnacle of the Juventus scouting community and is Comolli’s chief adviser on transfers. The issue is that he does not likely talk with the workforce or its chief, who’s Spalletti, solely with Comolli, so it’s troublesome to adapt the certificates to wants.

Spalletti wish to have an individual who connects the workforce with the administration and in addition listens to the coach, what he wants. Matteo Tognozzi has already been chosen for this function. Tognozzi already labored at Juventus as a senior scout and introduced abilities equivalent to Yildiz and Huijsen to the workforce. Spalletti is a superb admirer of Tognozzi, who he believes has an incredible eye for recognizing expertise. The Italian specialist is now the sporting director of Rio Ave, however Juventus would give him a serious function within the participant monitoring division.

Regardless of the variations of opinion with Comolli, Spalletti doesn’t need the workforce to fireplace Comolli, his solely request is that he have much less say in sports activities issues and workforce administration.
