Roberto Mancini agrees to become next Juventus manager | OneFootball

Serie A giants Juventus are making considerations about their managerial position and with Thiago Motta’s position under scrutiny, Roberto Mancini has said ‘yes’ to replace him.

La Gazzetta dello Sport, as relayed by TMW, have reported that Juve’s game against Genoa is likely to be Motta’s last game as manager of the Bianconeri. The feeling is that heavy defeats to Atalanta and Fiorentina have already made sure that the manager is at the end of his road at the Old Lady.

He will manage the team against Genoa and then make way for Mancini, who has agreed to take over. He will join on an interim basis but there will be an option to extend his stay and it will become automatic, if Juve finish inside the top four this season.

The international break has proved vital in Juve’s decision and even though sporting director Cristiano Guintoli confirmed that Motta will stay, reflections have been made during the break.
