Juventus line up Nedved for director’s role

Former Juventus star Pavel Nedved is being lined up for a director's role at the club.

Tuttosport says this is just the start of his new career, as he could then move out from behind the desk.

Nedved had originally been offered the role of working with the youth team – the position Ciro Ferrara had before he became a head coach.

Others hint at a job connecting the squad and staff to the club hierarchy.

Nedved will assist Alessio Secco with transfer policy and also begin working with the youth setup ahead of taking a fulltime coaching role.
