Motta’s Coaching Journey
Thiago Motta began his coaching career in 2018 with the youth team of Paris Saint-Germain, where he had concluded his playing career a few months earlier. His coaching journey in Italian football started at Genoa in 2019, followed by head coaching roles at Spezia and Bologna.
Last season, Motta led Bologna to a historic Champions League qualification, a remarkable achievement that has now secured him the top job at Juventus.
The Serie A giants hope that Motta’s tactical expertise and his ability to develop young talent will help the club regain their dominance in the Italian top flight and potentially challenge for European glory.
Juventus fans are eager to see how the new manager performs in his first season, as the club aims to recover from a disappointing campaign under Allegri’s leadership. The club has not won a Serie A title since the 2019/2020 season.
Motta’s primary task will be to end this title drought and lead Juventus back to the top, following a season where they finished behind Inter Milan and AC Milan.
