Igor Tudor’s agent, Anthony Seric, confirms his client will remain in charge of Juventus for the upcoming Club World Cup.
Tudor will remain in charge of Juventus for the 2025 Club World Cup, which starts on June 14.
His agent Seric clarified his client’s recent claims on Monday morning: “He has an excellent relationship with Giuntoli and all parts of the club,” he told Sky Sport via SportMediaset.
“He will not pressure the club about his future decision because he clearly hopes to still be the Juventus coach next season and will respect the timing of their choice.
“He spoke with Cristiano after his post-match interview, and Igor will honour his commitment to lead Juventus at the Club World Cup.”

According to Sportitalia transfer expert Alfredo Pedullà, Tudor and the Bianconeri directors met Monday morning to discuss the coach’s statements after Sunday’s win over Venezia and clarified that the Croat would remain in charge for the upcoming tournament.
Tudor had said on Sunday that he’d only lead the team for the Club World Cup if he were confirmed as the head coach for 2025-26.
His contract was automatically extended last night after the Old Lady’s 3-2 win over Venezia, which qualified them for the Champions League. However, the Bianconeri can terminate the agreement by paying just €1m, and growing reports suggest they have already chosen Antonio Conte as their coach for next season.
“It will be known soon, not after the Club World Cup, but before.
“We were all focused on the end of the season, all the games. I didn’t even want to talk about this. Now we have the Club World Cup, but all this will be solved before that. It would not be a good idea to go there without a decision, or to make a decision [to change] but still go there with the same coach. It would not be serious for the club or the coach.”
