Juventus, launching a joke that immediately set social media ablaze: "I don't like Spalletti, because I remember him from the national team. But he won the Scudetto with Napoli and got a tattoo.

I don't know if Briatore is right or wrong, but his opinion on Spalletti makes me think he's still confused. Juventus needs stability, not constant provocation, which can only create confusion.
