The coach will meet with Juventus management: if a deal is reached, he would be reunited in Turin with his son, who has been working for the club for over a year

Juve could soon become a family affair for the Spallettis. Luciano is set to meet with Comolli in the coming hours to discuss the technical plan: if he agrees to take the Bianconeri helm, he’ll be reunited in Turin with his son, Federico, who is already part of the club’s scouting team. It was Giuntoli who hired Spalletti Jr. at Juventus in 2024, poaching him from Udinese: despite his youth (born in 1995), he is a highly capable staff member who focuses specifically on the youth academy.

Federico Spalletti has also worked in the past as part of the Italian Football Federation’s technical staff, but his work has never involved close collaboration with his father—something that could happen at Juve, given that one of his strengths is his ability to thoroughly analyze opposing teams. Although the Tuscan scout, who speaks five languages, has demonstrated on multiple occasions that he has a keen eye for discovering talent, he could simply continue his work at Vinovo while awaiting the arrival of the new sporting director.
