Kivu will remain with Inter: Marotta confirmed the extension of his contract
Juventus’s sporting director Giuseppe Marotta officially confirmed that there is a possibility of extending Krišjan Kivu’s contract. According to the official, signing a new contract is just a matter of time and formality, as all the key terms have already been agreed upon by both parties.
The Romanian player, who once played as a defender for Juventus, is also in charge of the club’s youth academy. He serves as an assistant to Simone Inzaghi in the first team’s coaching staff. His work with the reserve team, his tactical skills, and his ability to integrate young players into the first team’s squad are highly valued by the club’s management.
“Kivu will sign a new contract. This is just a formal step. We are completely satisfied with his contributions to the development of the academy and the coaching staff. Stability within the club’s structure is our priority,” said Marotta in a statement to the press.
It is expected that the renewed contract will be valid until the summer of 2026, with the possibility of further extensions. For Inter, this decision is another step towards establishing a long-term sports strategy, where emphasis is placed on internal continuity and trust in proven staff members.
Experts have already deemed the extension of Kivu’s contract to be a logical move. Having gone from player to coach within Juventus’s system, Kivu remains one of the club’s key figures. His continued involvement will help strengthen the connection between the academy and the first team, thereby helping Inter to achieve success in both Serie A and European competitions.
