Igor Tudor was fired as manager of Juventus following their defeat at Lazio.

In March, the Croatian replaced Thiago Motta at the Italian club.

The 43-year-old has now led the team to eighth in the Serie A table after an eight-game winless streak.

The Lazio side’s third successive defeat came on Sunday, when they lost to the team for the first time in all competitions.

In a statement from Juventus, it read, “The club thanks Igor Tudor and his entire staff for their professionalism and dedication over the past few months and wishes them all the best for their future careers.”

For their Serie A clash against Udinese on Wednesday (17:30 GMT), Juventus added Massimiliano Brambilla as their new manager.

The Old Lady have lost their last five league games and are six points behind Napoli.
