Juventus is restarting with Igor Tudor, following the recent confirmation strongly desired by the club’s management after Damien Comolli’s arrival in the executive office. After the FIFA Club World Cup break, Juve can now fully focus on technical and tactical planning for the upcoming season. The transfer market will still shuffle the deck because there are many deals to be made.
Juventus Will Stick to a 3-4-2-1 Formation
Tudor’s idea is to play a very offensive 3-4-2-1 formation, while maintaining the compactness that was missing in the crucial phases last season. Di Gregorio is confirmed as the starting goalkeeper, while the defense will see the first moves. Juventus’ most important signing is already at home: Gleison Bremer, ready to return after the serious injury he suffered last year. Alongside him is a lineup that currently includes Kalulu, Gatti, and Kelly, but as mentioned, the market must be watched closely.
The same applies to midfield. Locatelli and Thuram are untouchable in the center, while on the wings the future of Cambiaso needs to be clarified. Alberto Costa is climbing the ranks on the other side, and there is also Nico Gonzalez, who could still be moved back.
Watch the Offensive Line
Tudor also wants to rejuvenate Koopmeiners. The future of Francisco Conceicao, who is the preferred choice for that role, is uncertain; otherwise, Juventus will turn to Sancho. Yildiz is untouchable and is shining as a number 10 under Tudor. Up front, the new arrival Jonathan David currently holds the striker spot. Kolo Muani is expected to be the special reserve, while Vlahovic’s future is unclear as he no longer fits Tudor’s plans.
Tudor cannot fail. He will start the season with a clear goal: to ensure Juventus can compete on all fronts and challenge Napoli for the championship crown.
