The future of Thiago Motta as Juventus head coach appears increasingly uncertain. While no immediate decision is expected, the club is reportedly considering alternatives for the end of the season. According to reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport (via IlBianconero), three high-profile names have emerged as potential successors: Gian Piero Gasperini, Antonio Conte, and Roberto De Zerbi.
Gian Piero Gasperini has garnered significant attention after his Atalanta side dismantled Juventus with a commanding 4-0 victory in Turin. Known for his tactical acumen and attacking philosophy, Gasperini could be an ideal candidate to revitalize Juventus after a challenging season.
Antonio Conte, a former Juventus player and manager, is another name on the shortlist. Conte previously led the Bianconeri to three consecutive Serie A titles during his tenure from 2011 to 2014. His proven track record and deep connection to the club make him a strong contender should Juventus decide to part ways with Motta.
The third name in contention is Roberto De Zerbi, who has recently entered the conversation. De Zerbi has impressed with his managerial stints at Sassuolo, Brighton, and Marseille, showcasing a progressive style of play that could align with Juventus’ ambitions. Despite being under contract with Marseille until 2027, his availability could spark serious interest from the Italian giants.
While Motta’s position remains intact for now, the club’s management is expected to evaluate his performance at the end of the season. With Juventus struggling to meet expectations this campaign, these potential coaching changes could mark a pivotal moment in their efforts to return to dominance in Serie A and Europe.
