Comolli joined in summer 2025 from Toulouse and his tenure lasted one season. The departure takes immediate effect.

Carnevali, 65, arrives after 12 years at Sassuolo, where he was a key figure in the club’s progression through recruitment and player development.

The reshuffle comes amid a difficult sporting backdrop. Juventus finished sixth in Serie A and missed the Champions League after fighting for the top four until the final day. They were eliminated in the Champions League play-offs by Galatasaray.
