Juventus are preparing to open formal talks over a new contract for head coach Luciano Spalletti, with sporting director Giorgio Chiellini confirming the club’s intention to continue their partnership, İdman.Biz reports.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Chiellini moved to clarify speculation that had circulated since January regarding Spalletti’s future in Turin. The former Juventus captain, now part of the club’s executive structure, stressed that there has never been uncertainty over the manager’s position.
“The issue of a new contract for Luciano Spalletti has never been in doubt,” Chiellini said. “It is one of our main priorities. We will meet soon to discuss the details of the agreement.”
