Spalletti warns Juventus must win individual battles for tactics to work

Published on: 02 November 2026

Juventus head coach Luciano Spalletti said his team’s tactical approach would be ineffective if players continued to lose their individual duels.

Spalletti was speaking after Juventus secured a successful result against Napoli. The Italian took charge of the Turin club in the autumn of last year.

“Tactics do not work if you lose your duels,” Spalletti said.
