While the roars calling for his head are growing louder by the day, Max Allegri is yet to crumble.
In fact, a report claims that the manager isn’t only staying at the club beyond the current campaign, but will have a major say on an upcoming crucial decision.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport via ilBianconero, Allegri still wields enough power at Continassa, allowing him to affect the pecking order when it comes to choosing the club’s next sporting director.
With Federico Cherubini’s ban upheld by CONI, the Bianconeri are searching for a new head of the sporting department.
But while Napoli’s Cristiano Giuntoli is the management’s preferred choice due to his exploits in the Southern Italian city, Max is reportedly fonder of other candidates.
The source believes that the Juventus boss would like to reunite with his longtime friend and former teammate Ricky Massara who currently acts as Paolo Maldini’s right-hand man at Milan.
Moreover, Sassuolo director Giovanni Rossi is also a profile that Allegri appreciates. The 56-year-old served at Juventus in the past and was in charge of the club’s youth sector.
While Juventus Next Gen sporting director Giovanni Manna is temporarily serving in Cherubini’s steed, a permanent promotion remains unlikely, as the source explains.
Given his abysmal failure in the last 2 years, Allegri should wield absolutely zero power at Juventus. He should have been sacked many months ago – a complete dinosaur who doesn’t prepare properly for games, does not learn from his mistakes, has his favorites and plays a boring, unattractive and losing style of football – what has happened to this great club???!!!!!
What do we need to do to get rid of that idiot???!!!
20 years a fan and this is the worst season I’ve seen since Del Neri.
Allegri has to go. Tying him to such a contract was beyond stupid.
I have no idea how Cuadrado has lasted this long, he should’ve been retired years ago. Seeing him on the pitch brings nothing but resentment from me. Juve hasn’t had a good RB/RWB in YEARS and this should be an absolute priority signing.
Paredes was also a HUGE mistake, both in terms of skill and attitude. He just comes off as a terrible individual. Provides absolutely nothing that befits this club.
All this needs to be addressed.
