"I had no contact with Italian clubs" - Luciano Spalletti addresses rumors of possible Juventus appointment

The 66-year-old coach remains out of work.

Details: In an interview with Calciomercato, Spalletti stated that he hasn't received any concrete offers from Juventus or other Serie A clubs:

"Am I the new #Juventus coach? I have had no contact with Italian clubs, but I want to return," said Spalletti.

Spalletti also shared his thoughts on whether Juventus are ready to reclaim the Scudetto:

"Is #Juventus ready to win the league? I don't know. Today, I'm the last person who can talk about Juve. Do I want to return to coaching? I'm fine, I have the ambition to put right what has happened to me recently. I'm waiting calmly."
