Official: Allegri, to Juve

Massimiliano Allegri is now officially the new Juventus coach. The Italian club, having fired Pirlo, first announced it in a peculiar way: showing a silhouette of the state of Minnesota. This is due to an old story at a press conference by the technician himself. Passionate about horses, he once bet on one that was called just like that, Minnesota. They told them: “You are more likely to train in Serie A than this horse to win“. The horse won, and we know what happened to Allegri. Subsequently, he already issued a statement announcing the agreement between the parties.

The Italian signed his contract yesterday, he will collect 9 million net until 2025. After weeks waiting for the decisive call from Madrid, The coach decided to accept the important proposal of the Bianconero club, where in five years he won five Scudetti, four Italian Cups, two Super Cups, and played two Champions League finals.

Juve in 2019 had sought a different path with a “more European” game, it was said, but with both Sarri and Pirlo things have not worked out and it was decided to take a step back, also throwing out the director of the Paratici sports area. Allegri also had Inter's proposal on the table, but the club's financial problems (which led to Conte's goodbye), kept him away from the Nerazzurri. After two years standing, he wants to show that, with him, Juve is stronger. It is his great victory.
