It took just one sentence to capture Luciano Spalletti’s philosophy. In a behind-the-scenes video shared by Juventus on their official channels, the new Bianconeri coach is seen arriving for his first day at the Continassa training centre. As he greets Mattia Perin, the goalkeeper smiles and asks him a traditional “All good?”. Spalletti’s reply is sharp yet loaded with meaning: “That will depend on you.”
Those few words, delivered with calm conviction, reveal much about Spalletti’s approach. They’re not a mere quip but a call to responsibility. The success of this new technical project, formally beginning that day, rests on the effort and maturity of the group.
A Message for the Team
The exchange with Perin was anything but casual. The goalkeeper is one of the most respected figures in the Juventus locker room, a leader whose voice carries weight among teammates and staff alike. By addressing him, Spalletti was in effect speaking to the entire squad. His message was clear: the team’s future depends on the players’ mentality and commitment.
A Decisive Beginning
Spalletti’s arrival at Juventus could not have been more telling. Known for his direct manner and gift for connecting immediately with his players, the coach from Certaldo wasted no time setting the tone for the new era. No empty pleasantries, just clarity and accountability from the very start.
It’s a strong debut that has already impressed fans and sparked anticipation for what lies ahead—a Juventus built on leadership, awareness, and a collective sense of purpose.
