WHAT HAPPENED?
Tudor took over from Thiago Motta earlier in the season after a poor start to the campaign for Juventus and has led a resurgent team back into the top four and into Champions League contention. As a result, the club are looking to extend his contract until the end of the 2025-26 term.

However, the hierarchy in Turin are believed to be impressed with how the 46-year-old has managed to steer the ship in Turin and may choose to keep the Croatian around regardless of where Juventus finish.
