Max Allegri returns to Juventus after Pirlo dismissal Football365 1 hour ago
Juventus have re-appointed Massimiliano Allegri as manager following the departure of Andrea Pirlo.
Pirlo left the club after just one season in charge, where he could only guide them to a fourth-placed finish in Serie A, ending a run of nine successive titles.
Five of those came in Allegri’s glittering first spell, where between 2014 and 2019 he also won four doubles and took Juve to two Champions League finals.
