There’s a sense of big change coming at Juventus. Although the club hasn’t officially begun its restructuring, signs are already visible across many areas  from management and coaching staff to the players themselves.

One of the key moves being considered involves Antonio Pintus, currently a fitness coach at Real Madrid, and widely regarded as one of the best in his field.

Pintus is not new to Juventus. He worked with the club in the past and knows its environment well.

His return is being considered as Juventus looks to improve the physical conditioning of its players an area that has been a problem in recent seasons due to a high number of muscle injuries.

The club believes that bringing back someone with Pintus’ experience could help reduce injuries and boost the team’s overall fitness.

Reports from Spain suggest that Pintus would prefer to stay at Real Madrid, even if in a supporting role under the new coaching team expected to be led by Xabi Alonso.

Still, Juventus has already expressed interest and made a first approach. The situation will likely continue to develop in the coming weeks.

If Pintus returns, it would be part of a larger overhaul at Juventus. There is even talk about Antonio Conte possibly coming back as head coach.

All of these moves show that Juventus is focused on building a stronger and more modern club  one that can compete again at the top of Italian and European football.
