Tudor was hired as caretaker manager of the Bianconeri at the end of March following the sacking of Thiago Motta.

The Croatian successfully qualified Juventus for the Champions League by finishing fourth in Serie A.

He was already set to coach Juve at the Club World Cup but his contract was due to expire at the end of the tournament.

Juventus have now announced that Tudor will be Juventus' manager during the 2025-26 season, also.

“We have decided to continue with Igor for the FIFA Club World Cup and also next season," new Juventus general manager Damien Comolli confirmed on Tuesday.

Tudor played for Juve from 1998 until 2007, winning multiple trophies. He was also assistant manager in Turin to Andrea Pirlo during the 2020-21 season.

His previous clubs as manager include Lazio, Marseille and Udinese.

Tudor rescued Juventus this past season from failing to qualify for the Champions League.

When he took over from Motta with nine games remaining, Juve were in fifth and in dire form.
