If Juventus change their coach, it won’t be because Massimiliano Allegri steps down to try something new. The manager and his agent Giovanni Branchini clearly alluded to that. The gaffer is wanted in Saudi Arabia but will wait for the call by the Bianconeri, Tuttomercatoweb informed.
His representative talked to Radio Deejay over the weekend (via Virgilio).
“I think he will stay. Still, it’s always possible he’ll be ousted. We’ll see what the club thinks, but anything can happen with this ownership. He’s under contract and proved his attachment. You generally switch things up when you are dissatisfied. I don’t see how they could possibly be that.”
Allegri skirted the remarks by Branchini regarding his Juventus future in his post-game comments (via Goal).
“Just invite him, so he can explain what he meant. There are simple things in life, so why are you asking me? I’m the coach at the moment. There’s seemingly a dilemma about me each season at this time of the year. However, I don’t think it really exists. We just need to reach our goals. I can only thank the lads. We want to give the club what was taken away from us. We need to work hard, then we’ll see.”
The boss stated that the ball was in the brass’ court in his pre-game presser.
