Italian media: Palladino accepts short contract, Mancini wants long contract, Xavi is also a candidate for Juventus new coach

Quanmai.com published an article talking about the progress of Juventus and several new coaching candidates.

Currently, two candidates have been contacted. One is Palladino, who grew up at Juventus and understands the team atmosphere very well. Palladino has the support of director Modesto and Chiellini, who played alongside him at Juventus.

Palladino is willing to accept a one-year contract and then make an evaluation next June, which will give Juventus management and Comolli more options.

Another candidate who has been contacted is Mancini, who hopes to get a longer-term project. He wants a long-term contract so he can be involved in decisions and make an impact right away. This is a more complicated situation, so he may not be the first choice.

Another possible candidate is Spalletti. After he was fired from the Italian national team, he is now free, but it is expected that it may not be too simple to recruit him.

As for others, the more interesting names include Xavi (who was contacted by Juventus a few months ago), or Marco Silva (who was contacted in the summer). Southgate is also a candidate but unlikely, and finally Terzic. Comolli has repeatedly looked outside Italy for a new coach, but otherwise Thiago Motta remains contracted to the club.
