Juventus has sacked manager Massimiliano Allegri following his explosive rant after the team’s Coppa Italia win over Atalanta. The club announced Allegri’s departure with immediate effect, with Bologna manager Thiago Motta emerging as the favorite to take over.
Allegri’s exit comes with two Serie A games remaining in the season. His dismissal followed a heated outburst post-match, which reportedly did not sit well with the club’s hierarchy. Despite the Coppa Italia victory, Juventus decided it was time for a change.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Juventus acted swiftly to part ways with Allegri, ending his tenure prematurely. Allegri’s second stint at Juventus saw mixed results, and his latest antics seemed to have been the final straw.
Thiago Motta is the frontrunner to replace Allegri after impressing with Bologna this season. The former midfielder has guided Bologna to a strong position in Serie A, showcasing his managerial prowess and making him a suitable candidate for the Juventus job.
Juventus will face Bologna next in Serie A on May 20, and the club is expected to make an official announcement regarding the new manager soon. Fans and players alike will be watching closely to see how the team performs in the final matches without Allegri at the helm.
This managerial shake-up comes as Juventus aims to end the season on a high note and build a stronger foundation for the next campaign. With Motta potentially taking charge, the club hopes for a fresh start and renewed success.
