Igor Tudor is due to touch down in Turin tonight and is set to step in as caretaker coach at Juve to the end of the season.

After a verbal agreement in principle was reached yesterday evening, Juventus management and the Croatian  are working to find a definitive agreement.

In this way, Tudor could arrive in Turin as early as this evening, to begin training the Juventus squad  starting tomorrow.

Talks were also held with Roberto Mancini, though financial terms saw the move fall through.
