Juventus have named former Azzurri boss Spalletti to lead the team for the remainder of the campaign.
The experienced coach takes over from Igor Tudor, who was sacked post the Lazio setback on Sunday.
The former boss came on board in March to replace Thiago Motta but departed after seven months following a string of eight matches without a victory.
Spalletti led Napoli to the Serie A title in 2022-23 before taking charge of Italy, who had failed to qualify for the 2022 World Cup under former boss Roberto Mancini.
He helped them qualify for Euro 2024 exiting in the last 16 stage against Switzerland.
Yet, the Italian FA let Spalletti go in June following a loss to Norway in World Cup qualifying, as Italy faced the possibility of not making a third World Cup in a row.
He has previously coached Inter Milan, Roma, and Udinese in Italy's top flight and lifted the Russian league trophy twice while at Zenit St Petersburg.
Massimo Brambilla served as interim manager for Juventus for their 3-1 win against Udinese on Wednesday which left them seventh in Serie A - 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.
