Football Italia reported that Juventus' technical director, François Modesto, held a meeting with former Monza and Fiorentina coach, Raffaele Palladino, last Saturday, amid the team's declining results under current coach Igor Tudor.

The meeting took place in Milan, where Modesto and Palladino have a previous working relationship when they were both at Monza, which sparked speculation about the future of the team's coaching staff.

This news comes after Juventus' defeat to Como with a score of 2-0 in the Italian league, extending the team's winless streak for over a month, since their victory over Inter Milan 4-3 on September 13.

The report clarified that Raffaele Palladino has still been without a club since leaving Fiorentina at the end of the 2023/2024 season, while it remains unclear whether the meeting with Modesto was purely friendly, or if it addressed the possibility of Palladino taking over as Juventus' coach in the future.
