Italian giants Juventus have sacked Claudio Ranieri as manager following a run of seven matches without victory.

The former Chelsea boss, 57, has been replaced by former Italy defender and Juventus youth team coach Ciro Ferrara.

A 2-2 home draw against Atalanta on Sunday left Juventus in fourth place in Serie A, a point above Fiorentina in the Champions League qualifying places.

Ranieri joined Juventus in 2007 and guided them to third in the league, but has suffered an inconsistent season.

I doubt any paper would be stupid enough to link Rafa with another job after having just signed a new contract.

I hope not! He is very overrated and Juventus fans hate him :;):

Probably the next coach will be Spalletti, Conte or Gasperini.

The manager system in Italy is like one big merry go round everyone manages everyone at one point. They may as well go and get Lippi back for another pop. :laugh:

Probably after next year Capello will get the sack for England going out in the group stage in SA so he will go to Juve or Milan.
