Overview

• Italian outlets report that Genoa’s Marco Ottolini sits atop Damien Comolli’s list for the sporting director role, with contacts held in recent weeks.
• Corriere dello Sport describes two tracks under consideration, a foreign option still undefined and the Italian route led by Ottolini, with a decision window of roughly 15–20 days.
• No appointment has been announced, and any move would require resolving Ottolini’s contract with Genoa alongside internal approvals at Juventus.
• Ottolini previously spent 2018–2022 at Juventus working across scouting, the loan players group, the Club15 network and the early Next Gen project.
• At Genoa he has been linked to value-building transfers, including reported deals such as Radu Dragusin to Tottenham with a Juventus sell-on and Koni De Winter’s loan‑to‑buy followed by a sale to Milan.
