Juve: Zidane or Klopp after Allegri?

By Football Italia staff

Juventus will reportedly target Zinedine Zidane, Jurgen Klopp or Didier Deschamps if they part with Max Allegri.

According to Tuttosport, Allegri’s job could be on the line if Juve exit the Champions League to Atletico Madrid in the last 16.

The newspaper writes there are three leading candidates to replace the Coach, the ‘favourite’ of President Andrea Agnelli being Zidane.

The former Bianconeri midfielder is currently out of work after leading Real Madrid to three consecutive Champions Leagues.

Elsewhere, Klopp would ‘intrigue’ the Old Lady, despite the ‘solid relationship’ between the German and Liverpool.

The 51-year-old won two Bundesliga titles with Borussia Dortmund and took the Reds to his second Champions League Final last season.

Finally, Tuttosport claims a return for Deschamps is a ‘always a possibility’, even if he is ‘more detached’ from the running.

The Frenchman was Zidane’s teammate at Juve in the 1990s but was also part of the last Bianconeri side who won the Champions League in 1996.

He took the Turin giants back into Serie A in 2007, only leaving after disagreements with the club’s board, and went on to win the 2018 World Cup as France CT last summer.
