The Old Lady have appointed previous Azzurri boss Luciano Spalletti as their manager for the rest of the term.
The experienced coach takes over from the Croatian manager, who was dismissed post the Lazio setback recently.
The former boss came on board in March to replace Thiago Motta but departed after seven months at the end of an eight-match winless run.
Spalletti led Napoli to the Serie A title in 2022-23 prior to assuming the Italy role, which missed out on the 2022 World Cup under former boss Roberto Mancini.
Under his guidance, they made it to Euro 2024 exiting in the last 16 stage against Switzerland.
Yet, the Italian FA let Spalletti go in June post a qualifying defeat against Norway, putting Italy in danger of missing a third straight World Cup.
Spalletti has also managed Inter Milan, Roma and Udinese in Serie A and won the Russian Premier League twice with Zenit St Petersburg.
Massimo Brambilla took interim charge of Juventus in the midweek 3-1 triumph over Udinese moving them to seventh position in the league - six points behind leaders Napoli after nine games.
In the Champions League, they sit 25th in the league phase, after recording one defeat and two ties in the initial three fixtures.
