Luciano Spalletti is a man under pressure at Juventus and calls for Antonio Conte to...
Juventus have picked up just 11 points from their first seven matches of the 2026-27 season. They are currently one point worse off than they were at the same stage of the 2025-26 season, which led to the departure of Igor Tudor from his position as head coach after the eighth league match just shy of one year ago.
The atmosphere was sour inside the Allianz Stadium after full-time and supporters have also grown concerned by the reaction of the coach and players in their post-match media duties, centre-back Bremer claiming that he ‘can’t carry everyone’.
Many supporters online have been calling for Spalletti to go and for him to be replaced by former Juventus boss Antonio Conte. This has also been suggested in several newspapers and online outlets, including La Repubblica and Calciomercato.com .
Conte remains available after leaving his position as head coach of Napoli at the end of the 2025-26 season. The former Juve, Inter, Chelsea and Tottenham tactician has also been linked with a move to Manchester United in the event that Michael Carrick is dismissed in the near future.
Calciomercato suggests that if Juventus do take the decision to part company with Spalletti in the coming weeks, then Conte will be at the top of the club’s wishlist. There have also been suggestions that Didier Deschamps, Stefano Pioli and Vincenzo Montella are among the alternative options.
