Carnevali set DEADLINE for Spalletti

The disastrous night in Genoa has forced Juventus’ hierarchy into action. In the aftermath of the disappointing defeat at the Ferraris against Genoa, the club’s ownership and CEO Carnevali called the entire squad together for a meeting, making it clear that the current situation can no longer be tolerated.

With Juventus suffering a worrying run of poor performances and already falling 11 points behind the top of the Serie A table after just nine rounds, the club felt it was necessary to deliver a strong message to the players.

However, the spotlight is not exclusively on Luciano Spalletti. The squad itself has also come under scrutiny, with the players expected to demonstrate an immediate reaction, starting with Sunday’s crucial showdown against Napoli.

Napoli Clash Could Define Juventus’ Season

Sunday’s encounter at the Allianz Stadium has become a potentially decisive moment for Juventus. Beyond the importance of the three points, the Bianconeri desperately need a convincing performance to restore confidence and send a positive message to supporters.

Carnevali wants to shake the group out of its current crisis and remind everyone of their responsibilities. As a result, the entire squad will remain in training camp at Continassa until Sunday, allowing Spalletti’s team to prepare for the difficult challenge against Massimiliano Allegri’s Napoli.

Spalletti Under Pressure Ahead of Crucial Three-Game Run

Naturally, Spalletti has also found himself at the centre of the growing storm. The Juventus manager is under contract until 2028, earning a reported €5 million per season plus bonuses, and continues to enjoy the backing of John Elkann and the club’s hierarchy.

Nevertheless, his position is no longer as secure as it once seemed. According to Calciomercato, the upcoming fixtures against Napoli, AZ Alkmaar and Fiorentina, all before the international break, could represent a decisive turning point for the Italian coach’s future in Turin.

For now, Juventus have neither contacted nor sounded out potential replacements, suggesting that the club is not yet actively searching for a new manager. However, Spalletti knows that patience is running out.

An immediate improvement in results and performances is essential if he wants to silence the growing criticism and prevent the situation from escalating further.
