Juventus Confirms Departure of Manager Max Allegri Days After Coppa Italia Win

Juventus manager Max Allegri secured the Coppa Italia by defeating Atalanta in midweek, marking the club's first trophy in two years. Despite this achievement, Allegri has been under increasing pressure due to reported tensions with the club's executives. On Friday, Juventus confirmed Allegri's departure, with Thiago Motta rumoured to be his successor.

The pressure on Allegri had been building, especially with Inter Milan dominating Serie A this season. Speculation suggested he would be replaced in the summer, but a recent controversy may have accelerated his exit. Allegri reportedly threatened a journalist, exacerbating the existing tensions with the club's executives. On Friday afternoon, Juventus officially announced his departure.

A statement on the club's official website read: “Juventus announces that it has relieved Massimiliano Allegri of his position as head coach of the men's first team. The exoneration follows certain behaviors during and after the Coppa Italia final that the club deemed incompatible with the values of Juventus and the behavior that those who represent it should have. It ends a period of collaboration, that began in 2014, restarted in 2021, and ended, after the previous three seasons together, with the Italian Cup final. The club wishes Massimiliano Allegri good luck in his future endeavors.”

Allegri, one of Juventus' most successful managers, first took charge in 2014 and left in 2019, during which he won Serie A five times consecutively and reached two UEFA Champions League finals. His return in 2021 saw him struggle against the resurgence of the Milan teams and Napoli. This season, he managed to secure Champions League football following a seventh-place finish in the 2022/23 season.

As Juventus looks ahead to the future, Bologna manager Thiago Motta has been linked with the vacancy in Turin. Fans eagerly anticipate a new era for the club, hoping for a return to Serie A dominance.
