The defeat to Genoa has added tension at Juventus. Luciano Spalletti remains in charge of the team, while the club’s leadership has demanded an immediate reaction from the players. The latest decision is that the squad will stay in a training camp until Sunday’s match against Napoli.
The result against Genoa did not pass without consequences at Juventus. Although Luciano Spalletti continues to be the coach of the Old Lady, the situation at the club has become tense after the recent performances, and the leadership has demanded a concrete response from the team.
According to reporting by Sport Mediaset, club director Carnevali held a direct conversation with the footballers, reminding them of their responsibilities towards the owners, the club and the fans.
During the meeting, the directors reaffirmed their trust in the working group, but at the same time stressed that the current situation is not acceptable. The message to the squad was clear: an immediate, strong and visible reaction on the pitch is needed.
Following the discussions, it was decided that the squad will stay together at the Continassa training centre, starting from the coming evening until the Sunday match against Napoli.
The measure was set by coach Spalletti and approved by the club’s leadership. The aim is for the team to focus fully on preparations for an important fixture, at a time when results have increased the pressure on the squad.
