How will Luciano Spalletti’s new Juventus play? All the options
Juventus, reenergized by the victory against’Udinese, is ready to rely on Luciano Spalletti. The former national team coach is called upon to restore a clear identity to the Old Lady. So much work awaits the 66-year-old Tuscan coach. The goal is, in a short time, to give certainty to the’entire squad.
The first novelty, taken for granted, concerns the defense. Luciano Spalletti is fond of the four-man defense. More than likely, Juventus will play with four defenders. Pierre Kalulu is expected to partner Federico Gatti in the center of defense. With Bremer’s return, Pierre Kalulu could be one of the two full-backs, perhaps along with Lloyd Kelly or Andrea Cambiaso.
Doubts about the midfield. The most popular solution is the trio of midfielders Thuram-Locatelli-Koopmeiners. However, it should be remembered that Luciano Spalletti, in his days coaching the national team, never held Manuel Locatelli in such high regard. Not to exclude also that he decides for two midfielders for a more offensive 4-2-3-1.
The attack will entertain the Tuscan coach. Many options are on the plate. The only certainty is Kenan Yildiz.
It remains to be seen whether he will be employed again as an outside player in a trident perhaps together with Dusan Vlahovic and Francisco Conceiçao or in a more central area, as seen with Udinese. In short, everyone is waiting to understand Luciano Spalletti’s choices to see a new version of Juventus.
