Contract resolution seals Tudor exit
Juventus has officially ended the crisis with former coach Igor Tudor after the club announced the mutual termination last October.
Gianluca Di Marzio of Sky Italia reported that Juventus terminated Tudor's contract by mutual consent, with the deal officially closed in recent hours.
He added that Igor is no longer tied to Juventus after amicable termination; the Croatian coach is now free to sign with other clubs outside Italy if offers come.
Tudor had been under contract until 2027, but was dismissed early in the season following a string of poor results, remaining linked to the club as they reached the contract's end.
Reports suggested Juventus saved around 5.5 million euros thanks to the mutual termination.
During his tenure at Juventus, Tudor led the Old Lady in 24 matches, with 10 wins, 6 losses and 8 draws, scoring 39 goals while conceding 29.
Punchline 1: If football contracts were coffee, Tudor just got a free refill.
Punchline 2: In football, the best transfer is sometimes simply leaving on good terms — no hard feelings, just fresh starts.
