Juventus FC has officially sacked Thiago Motta as the Men’s First Team coach following a string of disappointing performances in Serie A. The club confirmed the decision in an official statement released on Sunday, March 24, thanking Motta for his commitment while announcing his replacement, Igor Tudor.
Juventus Official Statement on Motta’s Sacking

The club would like to thank Thiago Motta and all of his staff for their professionalism and for the work they have carried out in recent months with passion and dedication. The club wishes them the best of luck for the future.”
Why Was Thiago Motta Sacked?
Motta’s tenure at Juventus lasted just eight months, during which the club struggled to maintain its Serie A dominance. A series of poor performances—including a humiliating 4-0 home defeat to Atalanta, the club’s worst home loss since 1967—led to his dismissal.
Currently, Juventus sit fifth in the league standings, putting their UEFA Champions League qualification at risk.
Igor Tudor Appointed as New Juventus Manager
Juventus have turned to Igor Tudor, a former player and assistant coach, to stabilize the team. Tudor will officially lead his first training session on Monday, March 25.
The Croatian coach, who has previous managerial experience with Marseille and Lazio, has been given a contract until June 30, with a possible extension based on performance.
