Jose Mourinho and six other candidates to replace Massimiliano Allegri at Juventus


  • English
  • Arabic

The question likely being asked in the Italian city of Turin is who will replace manager Massimiliano Allegri, who is departing Serie A champions Juventus at the end of this season.

Allegri held meetings with the club's hierarchy earlier in the week during which a clear disagreement between the two parties emerged.

What the disagreement was, it is unclear yet, but Juventus will look for a manager who will give Cristiano Ronaldo and his teammates the best chance of winning the Uefa Champions League title next season - something Allgeri was unable to do during his otherwise successful five-year stint.

Juve have won eight Serie A titles on the trot, but they lifted the last of their two European Cup titles in 1995/96.

Take a look at the slideshow above at who would be in the frame to replace Allgeri.
