Joe Montemurro announced as new Juventus head coach following Arsenal departure

Joe Montemurro has been announced as the new head coach of Juventus, after leaving Arsenal last month.

The 51-year-old, who is of Italian descent, announced his decision to leave north London in March, after four years in charge of the club he has supported all of his life.

Now, he takes up a new challenge in Italy as only the second head coach of Juventus' women's team, following Rita Guarino's departure from the club at the end of the 2020-21 season.

What success did Montemurro have at Arsenal?

Montemurro, who completed his UEFA A Licence qualification at the headquarters of the Italian Football Federation, won three trophies in his native Australia before his move to Arsenal, his Melbourne City team named W-League Premiers on one occasion and W-League champions twice in three seasons.
