Juventus Part Ways with Massimiliano Allegri and Secure Top Replacement

Juventus Sacked Allegri Following Coppa Italia Outburst

Massimiliano Allegri’s Juventus tenure is set to come to an end. The Italian manager is set to leave at the end of the season. This is a result of Allegri’s outburst during the Coppa Italia final between Juventus and Atalanta.

With Juve 1-0 and the game having a very short amount of time remaining, Allegri was livid at referees and fourth officials due to a decision. His rampage, however, continued after the game and he refused compliments from Cristiano Giuntoli and Maurizio Scanavino. Allegri was even spotted making gestures to the duo.

As a result of his outburst, Juventus reportedly considered sacking Allegri right away, as he has been asked to leave at the end of the season. Fabrizio Romano reported on the matter (via Fabrizio Romano on X):
