Thiago Motta makes decision over the futures of De Sciglio & Weah

 

 

New Juventus coach Thiago Motta has rendered his decision over the futures of Mattia De Sciglio and Timothy Weah.

 

The 41-year-old is currently working alongside the club’s Football Director Cristiano Giuntoli to define next season’s squad.

 

De Sciglio won’t be part of Motta’s plans. ............

 

 

The versatile fullback has been on the Old Lady’s books since 2017, and has a contract running for another year.

 

Nevertheless, Motta doesn’t intend to rely on his services next season. Therefore Giuntoli will be looking to sell the former Milan man and collect a small transfer fee. ............

 

On the other hand, the new Juventus coach has reportedly expressed his desire to keep Weah at Continassa.

 

Motta believes the 24-year-old can be useful as an offensive winger in his 4-2-3-1 system.

 

He can either play on the right side as he often does for the American national team, or as an inverted winger cutting from the left. ............

Motta blocks Juventus plan to sell highly rated youngster

 

 

Despite having a brilliant season on loan at Frosinone, Juventus had kept the door open for Matias Soulé to leave the club permanently. However, that is no longer the case. ............

 

Juventus wanted to keep him but had set an asking price for his signature, which, if met, would result in his sale.

 

That had been the general belief for much of this summer, but things seem to be changing as Thiago Motta reviews the talents at the club.

 

Motta has studied Soulé, and the Juve manager has decided that the attacker must stay.

 

It claims he has now blocked any attempt by the Old Lady to sell Soulé in this transfer window because he needs attackers who can score, and Soulé demonstrated his ability to do so during his last loan spell. ............

Massimo Mauro explains Thiago Motta’s style of football

 

 

Former Juventus star Massimo Mauro believes the Bianconeri are taking a similar path to when they appointed Maurizio Sarri as their manager, now that Thiago Motta has become their latest coach. ............

 

Motta has been one of the most innovative managers in European football, and finishing in the Champions League places with Bologna last season is widely considered a miracle.

 

His style of play is very different from what Juve fans watched during Max Allegri’s spell, and Mauro is happy with this new direction.

 

He explains Motta’s style in a recent interview saying:

 

“Thiago Motta has combined quality of play with results in the extraordinary Champions League ride he experienced at the helm of Bologna. I appreciate his desire to score one more goal than his opponents and to concede at least one less. Juventus’ choice to try a new path is great, a bit like what happened with Sarri”. ............

Soule to get a chance to impress Motta amidst interest in his signature

 

 

Matias Soule is the subject of serious transfer interest after the Argentinian shone on loan at Frosinone last season.

 

The youngster is one of the budding players at Juventus, and the Bianconeri were delighted with the way he played at Frosinone last season. ............

 

Juve is reportedly open to his departure, and Leicester City is the latest club to show interest in his signature.

 

But Thiago Motta will give Soule a chance to prove his worth before he leaves.

 

The manager has still not decided if the youngster will be part of his plans. He will evaluate him during pre-season before deciding whether to include him. ............

Luigi Maifredi warns Thiago Motta that Juventus always want quick results

 

 

Former Juventus manager Luigi Maifredi has warned Thiago Motta that Juventus always demands immediate results from their managers. ............

 

Maifredi was the manager of Juve in the 1990/1991 season and said:

 

“He must not think he has too much time, because a team like Juve doesn’t have it. They told me it was a transition year when I arrived, but Juve doesn’t give you time and I was deluding myself. 

 

“He must put his ideas at the service of the team and make the best of the package of players he has. Among the 6-7 he wants to discard there are top players, but he will have done an analysis of what he needs for his game and he is right to do so. Curious to see players like Locatelli”. ............

Journalist explains Juventus progress under Thiago Motta so far

 

 

Thiago Motta has made a promising start to his tenure as Juventus manager, as evidenced by his summer signings. ............

 

Journalist Guido Vaciago has now previewed his tenure so far and said:

 

“Juventus is, in fact, a team that shares Thiago Motta’s project, but has not yet metabolized it. 

 

“Juventus is a team that is missing at least three important players (Koopmeiners and two wingers, but perhaps also that central defender who should have been Todibo) and, due to the strange agenda of the transfer market, it will only be able to have them close to the start of the championship, if not even later.

 

“Given these circumstances, Juventus is where it should be and is what it should be: a team that is at least three/four weeks away from becoming a technical and tactical creature of Motta.” ............

Cesare Prandelli heaps praise on Thiago Motta ahead of Serie A start

 

 

Former Italy coach Cesare Prandelli is proud of Thiago Motta and insists that he is the Serie A manager who excites him the most.

 

Motta has become the latest manager of the Bianconeri as they aim to return to the top of Italian and European football. ............

 

The Bianconeri are confident that he will be a good fit for their team, and Prandelli has praised his work.

 

He said:

 

‘Today he carries that innate ability to read the game with him into his coaching career, the only emerging coach who has impressed me because he is not a playmaker, but someone who develops his system on concepts such as the occupation of spaces and diversified playing times.

 

‘These characteristics make his teams difficult to deal with, while the classic playmakers become predictable after a while, always using the same triangulations, the same cuts and timing of insertion. In Motta’s Bologna, I saw proactivity in every area of the field and last year, I was really happy with the championship he managed to have.’ ............

Jacobelli says Motta has sent a strong message to all Juventus players

 

 

Thiago Motta made several surprising decisions in his first Juventus team selection against Como over the weekend. ............

 

As it turns out, Motta is serious about transforming the club and is committed to selecting players based solely on merit.

 

One of his boldest decisions was benching Danilo while starting Federico Gatti in defense as captain for the night.

 

Motta also handed a debut to Samuel Mbangula, another significant move since the youngster was still relatively unknown to most of the club’s fanbase. ............

 

 

Xavier Jacobelli has since commented on the situation, noting that the days of players being picked simply out of habit are over.

 

“The wind has changed at Juventus. You can feel the enthusiasm. Motta doesn’t look at anyone, see the exclusion of Danilo . Off you go, keeping the captain on the bench for a tactical choice is a very clear indication to the team. No one in this Juventus is sure of having a permanent starting place”. ............

Platini explains why Motta is at Juventus at the right time

 

 

Juventus decided to change their manager to adopt a more attractive style of football, appointing Thiago Motta as their new head coach. ............

Adani praises Juve and reveals the difference between now and Allegri’s time

 

 

Lele Adani was a frequent critic of Juventus under Max Allegri. Now that the Bianconeri have a new and more exciting manager, he is likely one of the happiest pundits.

 

Juventus have quickly adapted to Thiago Motta’s style, playing fast-paced, attacking football and dominating their opponents.

 

This is a stark contrast to the Allegri era, when Juve employed a more defensive, cautious approach and were often on the receiving end of strong attacking performances from their rivals. ............

 

The Bianconeri will continue to play that well and have already impressed Adani, who said:

 

“The collective goes beyond these two games. It tells us that Juve has a strong idea and diametrically different from the one it had before with Allegri. Both in terms of competitiveness, therefore of being there and determining the event, and in the methodology. This is more important than the result. The collective emerges”. ............

Marco Tardelli discusses Motta’s arrival and similarity to Giovanni Trapattoni

 

 

Thiago Motta has made an impressive start as Juventus manager, and Marco Tardelli has compared his arrival to that of Giovanni Trapattoni.

 

Tardelli, who played for Juventus between 1975 and 1985, worked with Trapattoni during his time at the Turin club. ............

 

The former midfielder is now one of the most innovative managers in the game, and he has significantly changed Juventus’ approach to playing.

 

The defensively-minded team of last season has been transformed into a fast-paced, offensive unit, leaving some supporters amazed at how quickly the team has adapted to this new style.

 

While there is still work to be done to fully transform the team, Tardelli insists that this period reminds him of Trapattoni’s arrival.

 

He said: “During these matches we saw a team with a very precise game and the will to follow the suggestions of their coach, excellent both in the offensive and defensive phase despite the absence of players due to injury and reasons related to the market. I am very confident because I see a group that plays while having fun, that knows how to be on the pitch, that allows little to the opponent . I lived this experience when Trapattoni arrived at Juventus very young and full of hope with the total trust of all of us.” ............

Riccardo Trevisani has commented on their performance, insisting that despite the good start, Juventus must give Thiago Motta time. He said:

 

“Motta needs time. In the last three years Juve has not grown, now they have taken Motta to change the team. The mechanisms of the new coach are not trivial”. ............
