Overview
- Frederic Massara was named Juventus’ head of the sporting/technical area on Tuesday and will report directly to AD and DG Giovanni Carnevali.
- The arrival of Massara completes the first phase of Carnevali’s reorganization and comes roughly 25 days after Carnevali took up his role in Turin.
- Francois Modesto is reported to be leaving Juventus while Marco Ottolini is confirmed as sporting director and Giorgio Chiellini will move to a role focused on institutional relations.
- Massara’s immediate brief is to speed up outgoing transfers to unblock funds and to resolve high‑profile cases such as the Kolo Muani situation that hindered last summer’s dealings.
- The club plans to rebuild scouting and recruitment under Massara’s leadership, with Davide Cangini reported as a frontrunner for head‑scout, and the changes are meant to stabilize finances and day‑to‑day sporting operations.
