The Impact Of Igor Tudor's Departure On Juventus FC's Coaching Staff.

On October 27, 2025, Juventus FC announced the sacking of Igor Tudor after an eight-game winless streak across Serie A and Europe, with the Croatian manager and his assistants Ivan Javorcic, Tomislav Rogic, and Riccardo Ragnacci relieved of their duties. The club swiftly appointed Massimo Brambilla, the Juventus Next Gen coach, as interim manager—a move signaling not only a break from Tudor’s philosophy but also an urgent attempt to restore stability and continuity.​ Tudor’s tenure lasted only 24 games—the shortest for any non-acting Juventus manager in the club’s modern era. This rapid turnover intensified scrutiny of the club’s overall direction, casting a spotlight on the broader issues plaguing both the coaching staff and the technical leadership.​ Section 1: Historical Patterns—Juventus and the Coaching Carousel Juventus’s modern history has been characterized by frequent managerial changes, revealing both high expectations and deep-seated structural turmoil.​ Since 2019, Juventus...

Real Sociedad's president is aware of potential offers for Arsenal and Barcelona targets.

Real Sociedad President Jokin Aperribay said that star player Mikel Merino has already received offers to leave the club. The 27-year-old has one year left on his contract and is poised to quit the club amid interest from Barcelona, Arsenal, and Atletico Madrid. Merino's contract has not been renewed, and Aperribay confessed that this was a clear indication that he wanted to leave this summer. The Spain international's stock rose at Euro 2024, and Arsenal reconnected with his agency this week.

"I believe Mikel has been quite truthful with Real. He has received a renewal offer for a year, and if he has not renewed it, it is because he does not want to convince the Real fans that he is staying and then leaving, which I believe speaks good of him," Aperribay told the press, including Sport.

However, it appears that he is not yet interested in a move to Atletico Madrid, who attempted to sign him but Merino rejected their offer. However, if Real Sociedad is asked to negotiate with any party, they will do so. "I would like him not to leave; we all do, but if he tells us he accepts any of the offers on the table and wants us to negotiate, we will. We know he has them, and we know the specifics. However, we remain hopeful that Mikel Merino will remain at Real," Aperribay stated.

Merino has been linked with a move to the Premier League, but Football España claimed last week that the Basque midfielder will consider all options before making a final choice. How long he is willing to wait for Barcelona to make an offer could be the deciding factor, since they are currently concentrating on signing a star forward first.

Romario predicts that "world-class Raphinha" will lead Barcelona to the La Liga title.

Former Barcelona star Romario has backed the club to win the La Liga title in 2025. Romario famously scored 30 league goals in his debut season in Spain, helping the Catalans win the title in 1994. Despite his bitter departure from the club in 1995, Romario remains popular among Barcelona fans, and his opinion is highly valued. Ahead of a legendary charity tournament, Romario discussed how Barcelona is shaping up this season, with Raphinha serving as captain. "I'm not a huge football fan, but when Barcelona plays, you pay attention. Barcelona has an excellent team. They've won some games and performed well. "I believe we will be champions again this season," according to Mundo Deportivo. "Raphinha is one of the top players in the world. He plays exceptionally well for Barcelona and Brazil. He makes Brazilians extremely proud." Barcelona entered the November international break with a six-point lead at the top of the La Liga table, with the season ...

Fiorentina midfielder Edoardo Bove collapsed during a Serie A match.

Edoardo Bove, a Fiorentina midfielder, slumped on the pitch during his team's Serie A match against Inter Milan on Sunday. Bove's teammates hastily shouted for medical assistance and surrounded the 22-year-old before doctors treated him and quickly transferred him to a nearby ambulance on the side of the pitch. The event occurred in the 16th minute of the match, which was momentarily suspended at 0-0 and then abandoned with plans to reschedule later in the season.
