Comolli tipped for key role in Juventus board overhaul | OneFootball

Toulouse president Damien Comolli could become a key figure on Juventus’ new-look board, as the Bianconeri prepare for a major overhaul that is also expected to include the appointment of a new head coach following Igor Tudor’s departure.

Comolli, who previously held roles at Arsenal, Tottenham, and Liverpool, was linked with a move to Milan last season. However, Gerry Cardinale ultimately decided against hiring him, opting to keep the Rossoneri’s management team intact.

Comolli tipped for key role in Juventus overhaul as Chiellini and Conte also linked to shake-up

According to Mediaset’s Pressing segment, speculation is growing around Comolli’s potential arrival at the Allianz Stadium, where he would take on a prominent role in the club’s hierarchy alongside Juventus legend Giorgio Chiellini.

Chiellini, currently serving as Head of Football Institutional Relations, is reportedly being considered for a more hands-on position, especially in the wake of managing director Francesco Calvo’s resignation from his role overseeing commercial and institutional affairs.

Together, Comolli and Chiellini would be tasked with shaping a new era at Juventus — and one of their first key decisions could involve appointing Antonio Conte. The former Bianconeri boss has been heavily linked with a return to Turin and is widely expected to leave Napoli after just one season, having led them to the Serie A title.
