7 points in 4 weeks, 8th place in Serie A, are figures that do not "warm up" even Juve fans, much less the leaders of the "Old Lady". This start to the season, not at all positive, is in the wake of the results of recent years, where the club's leaders have tried in every way to return Juve to where it belongs, but neither Thiago Motta, nor Tudor, nor Spalletti have achieved anything like this. The latest defeat, the one against Sassuolo, has caused the "red alarm" to be turned on at the "Old Lady's" home, and in such cases, the first to end up under accusation is the coach. These days, immediately after the defeat at "Mapei", in Turin and not only, the media have begun to allude that Spalletti's bench has suffered a strong shake-up: "Spalletti under target", writes Corriere dello Sport on the front page.

Of course, changing the coach at this point in the season is not easy, in any way. Spalletti is under contract for another two years, earning 5 million euros per season. Firing him would open another hole, as they would be forced to not only pay Spalletti, but also the new coach. Conte, in this case, who is the first and only name to appear on the scene, earned 8 million euros per season at Napoli. Juve's leaders are very hopeful that Spalletti will get the team back on track, with the next two tests being against the Dutch team of Nijmegen and Atalanta in Serie A.

Spalletti is obliged to win these two meetings, otherwise his dismissal would not be a utopia. In the event of such an outcome, Juve will immediately go all-in to bring Conte back to Turin. In fact, Conte could have been Juve's coach a year and a half ago, when Elkan did everything to convince him, but Conte chose Napoli, a team with which he also won the Serie A title.
