Serie A2026/27Juventus penalty taker
Juventus's order is disputed. Spalletti explicitly called Locatelli the penalty taker after Locatelli took with Yildiz available. Yildiz and David also took during 2025/26, but those attempts included delegated or situational choices and all three had misses. The coach's designation is stronger than the current specialist split and supports retaining Locatelli first. SOS Fanta calls Locatelli-Yildiz an open contest and Goal puts Yildiz first. The order is usable, not settled. Coach designation supports Locatelli, but current specialist sources split between Locatelli and Yıldız. Conditions: Juventus is expected to add an attacker; an incoming high-volume specialist could enter at primary or secondary. Vlahović is excluded because his prior contract ended and no official return was found at the cutoff.
