Sensational from France/ Motta risks dismissal, Juventus contacts a big name for

The future of coach Thiago Motta at Juventus seems uncertain, after numerous oscillations during this season, including the recent defeat against Napoli. The leaders of the black and white club seem to be considering the possibility of a change in the technical bench, as they are not satisfied with the team's positions in the championship and in the Champions League.

According to reports from French outlet L'Equipe, Juventus have begun talks with renowned coach Xavi Hernandez. After leaving Barcelona at the end of last season, Xavi is currently on leave and represents an attractive option for the Bianconeri. His style of play, based on possession and a clear tactical philosophy, is seen as an opportunity to bring freshness to the Juventus squad and give a new direction to the team that has suffered quite a bit this season.

The 45-year-old has been linked with a move to Milan in the past as a replacement for Paulo Fonseca, but negotiations never materialised. Now free of commitments, he is seen as an ideal candidate to take over at Juventus, especially given his experience in handling young players and his commitment to building a long-term squad.

However, Xavi is not the only name being touted for the Juventus bench. Another potential candidate is Gasperini, who has built a strong reputation during his time at Atalanta. With an attacking style of play, Gasperini is seen as an interesting option to manage Juventus. His contract with Atalanta expires on June 30, and so far there has been no renewal, thus opening the door for a possible move to the “Old Lady.”

On the other hand, Motta continues to face the immense pressure that comes from the high demands of a club like Juventus. While poor results and constant fluctuations in performance have fueled speculation of his departure, the club's management is expected to make a strategic decision based on the team's performance in the coming weeks.
