Bremer's Disappointment Over Thiago Motta's Dismissal

In a surprising turn of events for Juventus, defender Gleison Bremer has expressed his disappointment over the dismissal of head coach Thiago Motta, asserting that the Italian was the right fit for the team and had the potential to achieve remarkable success. "I'm really sorry for Thiago Motta; he was a solid coach for me and I believe he could have done great things here," Bremer stated during a charity event for cancer research held in Turin.

Juventus' Recent Coaching Changes

The tension at Juventus reached a boiling point, prompting the decision to part ways with Motta during the international break. He concluded his tenure with a record of 18 wins, 16 draws, and eight defeats across Serie A, the Champions League, Coppa Italia, and Supercoppa Italiana. His dismissal on Sunday opened the door for Igor Tudor, who will take the reins for the remaining season.

Bremer's Conversations with New Coach Tudor

Bremer mentioned he recently had a conversation with new manager Tudor, saying, “I am pleased with what he shared with me. He checked in on how I was doing. It’s still early days, but I’m committed to supporting the team and hopefully celebrating our qualification for the Champions League.”

Challenges of the Current Season

The season has been particularly challenging for Juventus, particularly since Bremer's own devastating knee injury—sustaining a torn anterior cruciate ligament at the beginning of October—marked a downturn for the club's performance. Bremer reflected on this tough season, commenting, “It hasn’t been a good campaign. We’ve faced a lot of injuries, including mine and that of Juan Cabal. These months have been hard, but I’m on the road to recovery.”

Bremer's Road to Recovery

While discussing his rehabilitation, he noted, “I haven't experienced any setbacks, and I'm feeling progress. Though I have a desire to play immediately, we have to be patient. I might be included in the Club World Cup squad, but not necessarily as a starter.”

Looking Ahead for Juventus

Juventus fans will undoubtedly keep a close eye on both the development of their new coach and Bremer’s return, as the club grapples with its ambitions amid recent turbulence. Will Tudor turn the ship around just in time for a Champions League comeback? Only time will tell!
