Juventus is reportedly discussing the possibility of dismissing manager Thiago Motta before the current season ends, according to Sky Italy. The club is allegedly considering former Lazio coach Igor Tudor as a temporary replacement. Tudor, who previously played for Juventus and served as an assistant coach, recently left Lazio after a short period.

Motta`s time at Juventus has been disappointing, especially considering the high expectations after he was appointed to usher in a new era following Massimiliano Allegri`s departure. Despite Juventus still competing for a Champions League spot, they have been eliminated from the Coppa Italia and the Champions League playoffs.

Beyond results, Motta has struggled to replicate the impressive and exciting style of play that characterized his successful tenure at Bologna last season, where he led the team to their first-ever Champions League qualification. Furthermore, reports indicate that key players, including Dusan Vlahovic and Kenan Yildiz, are dissatisfied with the current coach.

Juventus will play against Genoa in Turin next week after the international break. However, it is uncertain whether Motta will remain in charge for that game. In their last two Serie A matches against Fiorentina and Atalanta, Juventus conceded seven goals and scored none. The 4-0 home defeat to Atalanta was their worst home loss in Serie A since 1967. These defeats have caused a significant rift between the fans and the coach, prompting calls for the club to make a swift decision regarding Motta`s future.
