Fulham manager Marco Silva has emerged as new target for Juventus, according to Sky Italia.
The Serie A side replaced Thiago Motta with Igor Tudor in March, and the Croatian helped them finish fourth in the table and qualify for the Champions League. It’s unclear whether Tudor will still be in charge after Juve’s Club World Cup campaign.
This has seen the Turin club look for replacements and they’ve now reportedly added the Fulham manager to their list.
Sky state Juventus made an attempt for Atalanta manager Gian Piero Gasperini. They are unlikely to be successful since he has already given his word to AS Roma. This has seen them look at other options and that’s where Marco Silva comes into the picture.
The former Everton manager helped Fulham finish 11th in the Premier League this season. Juve are ‘evaluating’ him for next season.
Former Juventus star Giorgio Chiellini has been working as head of international relations and scouting since September. Damien Comolli has stepped down from his position as Toulouse’s president and is set to join the Italian club.
Sky Italia state the ‘choice will be up to Comolli’, who has been entrusted to carry out a reconstruction at Juventus, along with Chiellini.
