Former Juventus and Napoli director Cristiano Giuntoli was present at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Thursday, where he observed Tottenham's 3-1 loss to Crystal Palace in the Premier League. Italian sources, including Tuttosport, reported his attendance.
Giuntoli's History with Juventus and Tudor
Giuntoli concluded his tenure at Juventus at the end of the 2024-25 season, being succeeded by Damien Comolli. During his second season with Juventus, Giuntoli had initially appointed Thiago Motta to replace Massimiliano Allegri. He subsequently replaced Motta with Igor Tudor in March 2025.
Giuntoli's time at Juventus saw him make pivotal managerial decisions, first appointing Thiago Motta, then replacing him with Igor Tudor in March 2025, shortly before his own departure from the club.
Igor Tudor's Tenure at Tottenham
Igor Tudor currently manages Tottenham. His coaching period in North London has commenced with three consecutive defeats. Reports from England indicate that Tudor's position may be at risk less than a month after his appointment on February 14. Tottenham is currently positioned one point above the 18th-placed West Ham, which is within the relegation zone.
With three consecutive defeats in less than a month since his appointment, Igor Tudor's managerial position at Tottenham is reportedly under scrutiny, as the club hovers precariously close to the Premier League's relegation zone.
