Juventus director Alessio Secco is set to leave the club, and chief scout Renzo Castagnini will follow him, reports Tuttosport.

The club have started the first phase of a summer clear out, and there will be changes from top to bottom. First to go will be Secco. He will make room for the arrival of Giuseppe Marotta from Sampdoria.

Secco and Castagnini are believed to have already handed the club their resignation, and an official announcement is expected next Wednesday when the appointment of Luigi Del Neri as coach is confirmed officially.

New club president Andrea Agnelli will also be formally presented as the man to carry the club forward.

Despite the report, though, Sampdoria denied their men had been in negotiations with other clubs in a statement, claiming they "were not a supermarket".

And Del Neri told the press on Friday that "nothing was agreed" and that he had "not shaken hands with anyone" in relation to previous reports linking him with the Old Lady.
