The 2025-26 Serie A season kicked off in Italy in August with Napoli defending their title after a victorious last season. Teams such as Inter, Juventus, and AC Milan are competing against Napoli for the championship, while other clubs like AS Roma, Atalanta, Lazio, Fiorentina, Bologna, and Como also vie for European qualifications.
This weekend features major matches, particularly Inter traveling to Napoli. Here’s what to expect:
Juventus Seeking New Management
Juventus has terminated Igor Tudor following unsatisfactory performances and a 1-0 defeat against Lazio. Tudor took over as head coach in March but struggled in the last month, with the team’s last win occurring on September 13 against Inter. Massimo Brambilla, currently the Next Gen coach, will lead Juventus through their upcoming Serie A fixture against Udinese while the search for a new manager continues. Luciano Spalletti is reportedly the frontrunner for the position, with negotiations for an eight-month deal underway. Other candidates mentioned include former Fiorentina manager Raffaele Palladino and Roberto Mancini. A decision is anticipated before Juventus’s match against Cremonese this Saturday.
