The Old Lady have named ex- Azzurri head coach Luciano Spalletti to lead the team until the end of the season.
The experienced coach steps in for Igor Tudor, who was dismissed post the Lazio setback recently.
Tudor arrived at the club in March to replace 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, which missed out on the 2022 World Cup with Mancini at the helm.
He helped them qualify for Euro 2024 but were eliminated in the round of 16 by Switzerland.
However, Spalletti was sacked by Italy in June after a World Cup qualifying defeat by Norway, with the Azzurri at risk of missing out on a third consecutive World Cup.
He has previously coached Inter Milan, Roma, and Udinese in Italy's top flight and won the Russian Premier League twice with Zenit St Petersburg.
Massimo Brambilla took interim charge of Juventus in the midweek 3-1 triumph over Udinese placing them seventh in the Serie A standings - six points behind leaders Napoli after nine games.
They are 25th in the league phase of the Champions League, with one loss and two draws in their first three games.
