Juventus have appointed former Italy manager the veteran manager as their manager for the rest of the term.
The 66-year-old steps in for Igor Tudor, who was sacked following the loss to Lazio last weekend.
Tudor arrived at the club in March filling the shoes of Thiago Motta but left after seven months following a string of eight matches without a victory.
Under Spalletti, Napoli clinched the Serie A championship in 2022-23 then moving on to lead the Italian national team, after the team's failure to reach the 2022 World Cup under former boss Roberto Mancini.
He secured their spot in Euro 2024 where they were knocked out in the last 16 by Switzerland.
Nonetheless, Italy dismissed Spalletti in June after a World Cup qualifying defeat by Norway, putting Italy in danger of missing a third straight World Cup.
Spalletti's managerial career includes Inter Milan, Roma, and Udinese in Serie A and lifted the Russian league trophy twice while at Zenit St Petersburg.
Massimo Brambilla took interim charge of Juventus for their 3-1 win against Udinese on Wednesday which left them seventh in Serie A - trailing leaders Napoli by six points after nine matches.
They are 25th in the league phase of the Champions League, having lost once and drawn twice in their opening three matches.
