Tudor extends Juventus contract

Baku, June 13, AZERTAC

Juventus confirm Igor Tudor has signed a contract extension until June 2027, with an option for a further campaign, according to Football Italia.

Juventus confirmed Tudor’s contract extension with an official statement on Friday.

“Passion. Charisma. Juventus spirit. Words that perfectly capture what Igor Tudor has brought to Juventus since taking over the Men’s First Team in late March – and what he will continue to represent in the years ahead,” Juventus said.

“It’s now official: Tudor has renewed his contract with Juventus. The Croatian coach will lead the Men’s First Team until 30 June, 2027, with an option to extend by another year until 30 June, 2028. His next challenge begins this summer, as the team head to the United States for their first competitive fixture at the FIFA Club World Cup.

“Tudor’s bond with the club has grown even stronger, particularly thanks to the work done in the final stretch of the last Serie A campaign, where he helped secure a place in next season’s UEFA Champions League. His tenure began with a home win at the Allianz Stadium against Genoa and ended on a high note with a vital victory away at Venezia on the final matchday.

“A few months ago, Tudor reconnected with the club. Now, new chapters are waiting to be written together.

“Congratulations, Coach Tudor!”

Football Italia reported this morning that Juventus were on the verge of announcing Tudor’s extension until 2027 with an option for a further campaign.

The Croatian tactician was hired by Juventus in March, following the sacking of Thiago Motta.

Tudor managed to secure qualification for the Champions League, and therefore, his contract was automatically extended to 2026.

New General Manager Damien Comolli spoke very highly of the ex-defender during a press conference earlier this week, confirming that the Croat would remain in charge of the entirety of the 2025-26 season.

A few days later, Tudor agreed to extend his Juventus contract by one more season.

Tudor won five games, drew three and lost one during his time at the club.
