Luciano Spalletti finds himself under pressure at Juventus following their 3-0 home defeat to Lazio in Serie A, with calls growing for Antonio Conte to return as head coach. The team has only managed 11 points from their first seven matches of the 2026-27 season, leaving them one point behind where they were at the same stage last season, leading to Igor Tudor's departure from the post as head coach after just eight league games a year ago.
Post-match media reactions and player behavior have also contributed to the sour atmosphere at the Allianz Stadium, with center-back Bremer stating he 'can't carry everyone'. Fans have been vocal on social media, demanding Spalletti's dismissal in favor of Conte, who is currently available after leaving Napoli at the end of the 2025-26 season.
Conte has also been linked with a potential move to Manchester United should Michael Carrick be let go. Other potential replacements for Spalletti include Didier Deschamps, Stefano Pioli, and Vincenzo Montella.
