As a trainer

After retiring from his career, Massimo Carrera became technical coordinator for the youth department of Juventus Turin in June 2009 . Between 2011 and 2014 he was part of the Antonio Contes coaching team for Juventus' first team. At the beginning of the 2012/13 season, he represented the temporarily suspended Conte and his assistant coach Angelo Alessio as head coach of Juve at official games. Carrera supported the team in the final of the Italian Supercup 2012 against SSC Napoli , which ended 4-0 in the Beijing National Stadium . In the three months as "head coach" at Juventus, which ended in October with the expiry of Alessio's suspension, Massimo Carrera had seven wins and three draws in ten games.

In July 2014 Antonio Conte resigned as coach of Juventus Turin after three Italian championships in a row and was signed as coach of the Italian national team in August .
