Juventus on FM26 - La Vecchia Signora Rises
36 Scudetti. 15 Coppa Italias. Italy's most DECORATED club. But Thiago Motta left after 9 months. Igor Tudor in charge. The Allianz Stadium awaits its next PROPHET.
Why choose Juventus?
36 SCUDETTI. Italy's most decorated club by a mile. The Allianz Stadium, 41,507 seats of impeccable black and white in Turin. Juventus is more than a club — it's a national INSTITUTION that strikes fear into all of Italy. Thiago Motta's ambitious project, the dream of beautiful football? OVER. Fired March 2025, replaced by Tudor, then Spalletti from October 2025. Juve is in reconstruction mode, sitting 6th with 54 points. That's YOUR opportunity: you inherit a sleeping giant with an unmatched DOMINATION legacy. Tevez, Del Piero, Baggio, Platini, Zidane — the legends are endless. And the message is clear: any manager who restores Juventus to the summit becomes immortal in the Piemonte.
The post-Motta era
Motta was supposed to be the long-term project. 9 months later, it's OVER. Eliminated from Champions League, Coppa Italia, 5th in Serie A. Tudor arrives to save what can be saved. You can REBUILD everything.
Tactics: Bianconero pragmatism
Juventus has a defensive DNA you can't ignore. Even when chasing beautiful football, DEFENSIVE SOLIDITY remains the foundation. A 4-3-3 or 3-5-2 depending on your squad, but always with dominant centre-backs and a top-class holding midfielder. Vlahovic or a similar profile up front: powerful, able to hold the ball with back to goal. Quick transitions and set-pieces are WEAPONS to never overlook — Juve has always been deadly from dead balls. In FM26, invest heavily in defence and midfield first. A genius attacker will come naturally once the base is solid. ORGANISATION is king.
Objectives: reconquest
36 titles, but the last was in 2020. 5 years of drought. Champions League missing since 1996. Time to RECONQUER Italy and Europe.
Juventus is Italian football's HISTORY. La Vecchia Signora deserves better than average seasons. Want to restore bianconero greatness? Fino Alla Fine!
