Soccer-Crespo returns for second spell as Sao Paulo coach
Soccer Football - Intercontinental Cup - Second Round - Al Ahly v Al Ain - Cairo International Stadium, Cairo, Egypt - October 29, 2024 Al Ain coach Hernan Crespo REUTERS/Amr Abdallah Dalsh/File Photo (Reuters) -Hernan Crespo has returned to Sao Paulo as coach, four years after leading them to the Brazilian Serie A championship, the club said on Wednesday. Former Argentina striker Crespo, who represented Chelsea, Inter Milan and AC Milan among other European clubs as a player, replaced compatriot Luis Zubeldia who parted ways with Sao Paulo after winning only two of their first 12 league games. "(Crespo) is a great professional who already knows the club, has won a title here and the time has come for him to return. We're delighted to have him back," club president Julio Casares said in a statement. The 49-year-old's first spell as Sao Paulo coach ended in October 2021, less than five months after winning the league, following a disappointing start to their title defence. Crespo led Emirati club Al-Ain to the Asian Champions League Elite title in May last year, earning them a place at the ongoing Club World Cup. He was sacked in November following a poor run of results. (Reporting by Chiranjit Ojha in BengaluruEditing by Christian Radnedge)

Soccer-Juventus hand manager Tudor two-year contract extension
FILE PHOTO: Soccer Football - Serie A - Juventus v Genoa - Allianz Stadium, Turin, Italy - March 29, 2025 Juventus coach Igor Tudor applauds fans before the match REUTERS/Massimo Pinca/File Photo (Reuters) -Juventus manager Igor Tudor's contract has been renewed for two more years ahead of the start of their Club World Cup campaign, the Serie A club announced on Friday. Damien Comolli, the club's new general manager, said on Tuesday that they had faith in the Croatian coach who was handed the reins fewer than three months ago. Tudor joined in March after the dismissal of Thiago Motta, with Juve eliminated from all cup competitions and outside Serie A's top four. Under Tudor, they lost just one more league match, securing fourth spot to qualify for the Champions League. "Tudor has committed to our club until June 30, 2027 - with an option on 2028 – and will also lead the men's first team in the coming seasons, starting with the first official competition to be staged in the United States, the Club World Cup," the Turin outfit said in a statement. Juventus face Emirati side Al-Ain in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday, followed by clashes against Morocco's Wydad AC and Manchester City in Group G.
