Ex-Juventus and Napoli director Giuntoli seen at Tottenham Stadium as Tudor’s crisis continues | OneFootball

Former Juventus and Napoli director Cristiano Giuntoli was seen at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Thursday during Spurs’ 3-1 loss to Crystal Palace.

Several Italian sources, including Tuttosport, report that ex-Napoli and Juventus director Giuntoli was in London on Thursday, where he watched Tottenham’s 3-1 defeat against Crystal Palace in the Premier League at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Giuntoli’s ties with Tudor

Giuntoli was sacked by Juventus at the end of the 2024-25 season and replaced by Damien Comolli.

In his second season at Juventus, Giuntoli had replaced Massimiliano Allegri with Thiago Motta, but then sacked the latter in March 2025, hiring Igor Tudor.

The Croatian tactician is now in charge of Tottenham, but the start of his tenure in North London has been terrible, as Spurs have suffered three defeats in his first three games.

Tudor risks being sacked already

According to reports in England, Tudor already risks being sacked, less than a month after his appointment, which was confirmed on February 14.

Tottenham are now fighting to avoid relegation from the Premier League, with only a one-point lead over 18th-placed West Ham.
