Juventus and Spalletti close to agreeing contract extension
Juventus and Luciano Spalletti are reportedly close to agreeing on a contract extension until June 2027 with an option for a further campaign.
Juventus expert Romeo Agresti reports on X that the Serie A giants and their coach, Spalletti, are close to agreeing to a new deal.
Spalletti close to agreement for new Juventus contract
Spalletti was appointed at the end of October to replace Igor Tudor, but only signed a contract until the end of the season.
Talks over a new deal began weeks ago, and according to Agresti, the two parties are now close to finalising the agreement.
The Juventus expert claims that the new deal will run until June 2027, but will include an option for a further campaign.
Juventus sit fifth in the Serie A table, one point below fourth-placed Como, but Spalletti has won 16 of his 29 games in charge of the Old Lady.
Only Inter (50) and Milan (42) have earned more points in Serie A than Juventus (38) since Spalletti was appointed on October 30.
