Juventus Exec Expected to Survive Lackluster Campaign | OneFootball

Juventus director Cristiano Giuntoli could pay the price if the team doesn’t make the top four, but it’ll likely come through a contraction of his mansions and new additions or a shake-up of the front office rather than an ousting, transfer market expert Paolo Paganini told Tuttomercatoweb.

The exec has been working hard on bolstering the squad, which suggests that he’s not going anywhere, even should the Bianconeri somehow land a cumbersome coach like Antonio Conte. Despite some mistakes in choosing players, his work has been appreciated by the ownership. He has significantly slashed the payroll and rejuvenated the roster.

Giuntoli intends to make only a few select big splashes to fortify Juventus in the summer. Dusan Vlahovic will be sold, likely in the Premier League or Turkey. The Old Lady will continue to pursue Victor Osimhen until he transfers to another team. The official has a strong rapport with the player and his entourage. Their will could be decisive despite a predictably tough negotiation with Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis. The Bianconeri are also eyeing Frank Anguissa, should he really ask out.

The management hasn’t decided about Igor Tudor at this stage. They will let the results speak for themselves. They would be glad to stay the course if they qualified for the Champions League. The gaffer has insisted on the values typical of the club, like the sense of belonging, and has brought serenity to the locker room.

If Juventus and Giuntoli had to make another coaching change due to a disappointing finish, the top targets would be Conte, Gian Piero Gasperini, and Roberto Mancini.
