Giuntoli official at Juventus: his first moves at the Bianconeri club

Cristiano Giuntoli is the new sporting director of Juventus. The Juventus club with an official statement announced the former Napoli manager, who had visited the Continassa facilities in recent days: for him a contract until 2028.

“Fifty-one years old, born on February 12, 1972 in Florence, Cristiano Giuntoli has behind him a career as Sporting Director that starts with Spezia, with which he won a promotion to Serie B and continues with Carpi, with which he achieved four promotions in five seasons. He arrived in 2015 at Napoli with whom he won the 2022/2023 championship. Now Giuntoli is with us. Good luck Cristiano and welcome to Juventus!” is the note from the Bianconeri club.

Before buying, Giuntoli will first have the task of thinning out the squad and making cash: redundancies include Arthur, Zakaria and McKennie, who have returned from loans but are out of Allegri’s plans. Bonucci and Alex Sandro are also toward farewell. Then Giuntoli will have to decide the fate of Chiesa and Vlahovic, and of Pogba himself if major offers arrive. For the incoming market: priority to the outfielders and Milinkovic-Savic.
