Giuntoli to Juventus, it’s official: five-year contract

“Cristiano Giuntoli is with us”. A sentence, the one chosen by the Juventus, which formalizes the arrival of the Tuscan manager at the helm of the Juventus club’s sports area. After closing his adventure at Naples on 30 June, with the high point reached shortly before with the victory of the historic third Neapolitan championship, Giuntoli chose Juventus. Fifty-one years old, born on February 12, 1972 in Florence, he is the man chosen by the Old Lady to rebuild and win again after two seasons without success and with the last particularly complicated year. After visiting Continassa two days ago, to get to know the people and the structures with which and in which he will work for the next five years, the signature on the contract has also arrived. In the photo gallery attached to the news, his first steps on the Juventus Training Center stand out, a place he will assiduously frequent given his desire to experience the team as much as possible, in addition to those with Paul Pogba. Just the player base, with the streamlining of the squad and the replacement of outgoing players, is the first mission of the new Juventus manager.

Corporate reorganisation

With the arrival of Giuntoli, who will hold the position of “Football Director until the end of the 2027/2028 football season, reporting to Maurizio Scanavino, Chief Executive Officer”, confirmations also arrive on the other technical and corporate roles. John Manna assumes the role of Head of 1st Team and will be Giuntoli’s right-hand man while “Francis Calvo, formerly Chief Football Officer of the Company, assumes the role of Managing Director Revenue & Football Development, reporting to the Chief Executive Officer”. In the end Federico Cherubini assumes the role of Football – Chief of Staff.
