Juventus part ways with Igor Tudor after torrid run

In a terse communiqué the club thanked Tudor and his staff for their professionalism and wished them well for the future.

Juventus have moved swiftly to relieve Igor Tudor of his duties, ending the Croatian’s seven-month spell in charge after Sunday’s 1-0 defeat to Lazio finally broke the club’s patience with a damaging run of form.

From spring promise to autumn collapse
Tudor arrived in Turin in March to steady a club in transition, but a bright opening gave way to a bleak slide: an eight-match winless streak across competitions and three straight defeats that left Juventus languishing eighth in Serie A and visibly adrift of the club’s ambitions.

Interim measures and a bruised campaign
The club announced that Massimiliano Brambilla will step up as caretaker for Wednesday’s Serie A clash with Udinese, a stopgap move aimed at arresting the freefall while the board searches for a longer-term solution.

Title hopes and European headaches
Juventus now sit six points behind leaders Napoli and have gone five league matches without a win, while their Champions League campaign is similarly misfiring with just two draws and a defeat from three games—pressure that crystallised the board’s decision to act.

Short, sharp statement from the club
In a terse communiqué the club thanked Tudor and his staff for their professionalism and wished them well for the future, drawing a line under a turbulent chapter and signalling the start of another frantic search for stability at the Allianz Stadium.
