Juventus FC have officially extended the contract of head coach Luciano Spalletti until June 2028, reinforcing their commitment to long-term stability, Softfootball reports.
The announcement, as confirmed by Fabrizio Romano via his official X handle, comes just 24 hours after both parties had reached an agreement in principle. Spalletti’s original short-term deal has now been significantly upgraded following a positive start to his tenure.
Romano revealed:
Official, confirmed: Luciano Spalletti signs new deal at Juventus until June 2028.
Spalletti took charge in October 2025 after departing the Italy national football team, initially signing an eight-month contract that included a clause linked to Champions League qualification. His impact over the past six months has convinced the club to secure his future with a longer-term agreement.
Under his leadership, Juventus have shown encouraging signs of progress, with improved performances and a clearer tactical identity. The extension reflects the club’s belief in his project and desire to build continuity after a period of instability.
However, fan reactions remain mixed. While many supporters view the decision as a strong vote of confidence in a proven coach, others have expressed concerns about whether the early progress can be sustained over the long term.
With the new deal in place, Spalletti will now look to guide Juventus back to consistent success domestically and in Europe, as the club aims to re-establish itself among the continent’s elite.
