Juventus considering three Serie A managers for post-Allegri role

 

 

Juventus reportedly have three Serie A coaches on their shortlist as Max Allegri’s second reign could be drawing to a close.

 

While the management continues to publicly back the under-fire tactician, but a divorce at the end of the season is becoming an increasingly likely possibility. ............

 

The first candidate on the list is obviously Thiago Motta who has left Calcio fans in awe this season.

 

The Italo-Brazilian is leading Bologna towards a possible UCL qualification with his progressive brand of football. ............

 

 

The second name on the list is Vincenzo Italiano whose cycle at Fiorentina will reach its conclusion at the end of the season.

 

Finally, Monza’s Raffaele Palladino is also being linked with a return to Turin. The 39-year-old is a former Juventus attacker who is currently showcasing remarkable coaching skills with the Biancorossi.  ............

Italian journalist insists: Giuntoli keen to replace Allegri with Thiago Motta

 

 

Italian journalist Marco Conterio believes Juventus Football Director Cristiano Giuntoli considers Thiago Motta the primary candidate to replace Max Allegri.

 

The Bianconeri official has often backed the under-fire tactician publicly, even amidst the club’s miserable run.

 

The Turin-based giants have only collected seven points from their last eight fixtures, causing an outrage among the club’s supporters, with the majority demanding a managerial change.

 

But despite what Giuntoli has been proclaiming in public, Conterio insists that the director is plotting to show Allegri the door at the end of the season. .............

 

“Juventus continue to consider Thiago Motta as the first option for next summer,” posted Conterio on his X account.

 

“There is no renewal proposal for Massimiliano Allegri at the table despite the reassurances received so far from Cristiano Giuntoli in the media.

 

“The coach is waiting for the club’s proposal, but to date, Giuntoli’s objective remains to lure the Bologna manager to Turin.” .............

Three possible Allegri replacements at Juventus revealed

 

 

Tuttosport newspaper reports Thiago Motta is the leading candidate to replace Massimiliano Allegri at Juventus in 2024-25, but Massimo Brambilla or club legend Paolo Montero could be appointed as interim coach if the Livorno-born tactician is sacked before the end of the season.

 

Allegri is under pressure at the Allianz Stadium as the Bianconeri won just one match from the last nine. They still sit third in the Serie A table, but Bologna are just two points below the Old Lady and Roma and Atalanta are getting closer to a Champions League placement.

 

According to Tuttosport, Allegri could be sacked if Juventus get more disappointing results in the next two Serie A matches against Fiorentina and Torino. .............

Bologna sets up road blocks in Juventus way towards Thiago Motta

 

 

Bologna remains determined to keep Thiago Motta as their manager, even as Juventus circles the former Italy midfielder.

 

Motta is arguably the most sought-after manager in Serie A this season as he leads his unfancied Bologna side toward qualification for next season’s Champions League.

 

Interestingly, they could overtake Juventus in the league standings before the campaign ends and finish third. ............

 

 

However, Bologna wants to keep him, and they have prepared a two-year deal to offer him if they qualify for the Champions League.

 

They are confident he will want to lead the team in European competition next season and will push to keep him. ............

Di Marzio: “No chance for Allegri to stay, Thiago Motta has given his availability to Juventus”

 

 

Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio offered some interesting updates regarding Juventus and their pursuit of Thiago Motta. ............

 

“Milan and Juventus are tiredly reaching the end of their cycles,” said the Italian journalist.

 

“But then it will be important not to make a mistake when choosing the new coach.

 

“Thiago Motta is on pole for Juventus. On the other hand, for Milan, there is the name of Lopetegui but he doesn’t excite the fans.

 

“So we need to understand how much the club is influenced by the fans’ opinion when making their choice.” ............

 

“Allegri has no chance of remaining at Juventus. Thiago Motta is the chosen one and has given his availability for the club.” ............

Rai journalist reveals two hurdles that could sabotage Thiago Motta move to Juventus

 

 

Italian journalist Marco Conterio names two obstacles that could prevent Juventus from appointing Thiago Motta.

 

As we all know by now, the Bianconeri’s Football Director Cristiano Giuntoli has identified the Bologna coach as the ideal candidate to take over from Max Allegri.

 

Nevertheless, the Tuscan manager still has one year on his hefty contact with the Old Lady, which is where the first hurdle might lie for Conterio. ............

 

Nevertheless, the Rossoblu’s owner Joey Saputo will try to convince the manager to stay put at the Renato Dall’Ara.

 

“There are only two factors that could block Thiago Motta’s move, which seems to be a given, to Juventus,” explains Conterio during his appearance on Rai Sport.

 

“On one hand, we have Saputo who relaunched talks with Motta and is trying to convince him to stay.

 

“On the other hand, perhaps the economic resolution between Allegri and Juventus in case it doesn’t arrive.”

 

 

The journalist feels that the talks between Juventus and Motta are heading in the right direction.

 

“At the moment neither one nor the other factor seems to be an obstacle in this way. ............

Motta breaks his silence on his future as Juventus circle the manager

 

 

Thiago Motta has broken his silence on the rumours surrounding his future as clubs follow the Bologna manager.

 

Juventus is one of the teams reportedly looking to make him their next manager as the Bianconeri work hard to ensure they replace Max Allegri. ............

 

When Allegri’s term ends, they could ask him to leave the club and bring Motta in as his replacement, but several other clubs also want the Bologna manager.

 

He has to choose the best next step for himself, and when asked about his future on the bench, he said:

 

“My future or that of the players is not important: at the right time we will gather around a table and see if there are the conditions to continue or not to continue.” ............

Is Thiago Motta to Juventus already a done deal?

 

 

Juventus is interested in making Thiago Motta their next manager as Max Allegri struggles to get the best out of their current players and win trophies.

 

This is Allegri’s third campaign as their manager during his second spell at the club, and he could end it without a trophy. ............

 

Motta is a frontrunner to become the Bianconeri’s next manager, and the Bologna coach may already be in talks with Juventus.

 

Juventus is waiting until the end of the season to make a decision and has been publicly backing Allegri.

 

However, journalist Carlo Pellegatti has suggested that a move for Motta is currently a done deal.

 

He said:

 

“From what they told me, between ‘Italian-Brazilian and Juve is done, but when I spoke about the Rossoneri hypothesis I wasn’t explicitly told no…” ............

Juventus prepare contract for Thiago Motta – The salary revealed

 

 

Juventus have reportedly chosen Thiago Motta to replace Max Allegri in the dugout next season, and have already prepared a contract for the young manager.

 

The 41-year-old made history this season by guiding Bologna towards the Champions League for the first time ever.

 

Nevertheless, the Italo-Brazilian could be heading towards the exit door, as his contract with the Rossoblu expires at the end of the season.

 

Moreover, the Bianconeri are keen to appoint Motta as a replacement for Allegri whose cycle has obviously reached its expiry as evidenced by the club’s disastrous run since February. ............

 

Cristiano Giuntoli has thus prepared a two-year contract for the Bologna coach with an option for a third season.

 

The former Inter and PSG midfielder would earn 3.5 million euros as net wages per year if he chooses to accept the offer. ............

How Bologna are trying to convince Thiago Motta to stay amidst Juventus talks

 

 

Juventus are currently working to bring Thiago Motta to Turin, but Bologna are still desperately trying to keep hold of their manager.

 

The Bianconeri are increasingly likely to part ways with Max Allegri at the end of the season, even though his contract is valid for another year.

 

As for Motta, his contract with the Rossoblu will expire in June, leaving him free to join a new club this summer.

 

But everyone at Bologna is desperate to maintain Motta, starting from the club’s owner Joey Saputo, all the way down to the players. ............

 

Saputo will reportedly try to lock down the tactician with a new contract while offering him a pay raise, various bonuses and more power on the transfer market to avoid a similar scenario from last summer when the management rejected the coach’s requests.

 

Moreover, the club’s historic qualification for the Champions League could be an additional incentive for Motta to stay. ............

Thiago Motta has received a three-year contract offer from Juventus

The wheels are starting to be put in motion, it appears.

 

 

 

Now that Juventus officially have a managerial opening a few weeks earlier than pretty much everybody expected, the wheels appear to be starting to be put in motion for the guy everybody expects to be Max Allegri’s full-time replacement.

 

Yes, even though he is still technically under contract with another club.

 

According to reports out of Italy over the last 24 hours, Juventus have officially offered Bologna manager Thiago Motta a three-year contract through 2027 to become their new head coach. Previous reports said that the contract could be a two-year deal with an option for a third, but SportItalia’s Alfredo Pedulla as well as Fabrizio Romano have both said the third year of the contract is very much a guaranteed one, with Motta being offered a salary in the neighborhood of €3.5 million a season.

 

Motta, who has reportedly been Juve chief Cristiano Giuntoli’s top choice to replace Allegri for months now, has refused to discuss a new contract with Bologna despite the club insisting on opening talks. That has only fueled the speculation that he is going to be on the move once the season comes to an end despite how well Bologna’s season has played out. ............

 

With Allegri’s dismissal on Friday, you have to believe a lot of the focus over the next couple of days will be about Motta and how soon Juventus can get a deal done once the season comes to a close next weekend. Juve, who travel face Motta and Bologna on Monday in a meeting of third place against fourth place, have clinched their spot in next season’s Champions League, thus deeming the last two games of the 2023-24 campaign rather meaningless other than final positioning in the Serie A table.

 

Motta’s work at Bologna has been the feel-good story of the season, helping the club qualify for a European competition for the first time in 60 years. Bologna are currently level on 67 points with Juventus, but are ahead of the Bianconeri in third place thanks to goal differential. ............

Thiago Motta reveals his future will be decided in coming days amidst Juventus links

 

 

Bologna coach Thiago Motta admits the next few days will be crucial to determine his future amidst growing links to the Juventus hot seat.

 

The 41-year-old enjoyed a majestic campaign at the Renato Dall’Ara, leading the club towards the Champions League for the first time in their history.

 

However, the Italo-Brazilian’s contract will expire at the end of the season, leaving his future up in the air.

 

In recent months, Motta emerged as Juve’s primary target to inherit Max Allegri’s place in the dugout. ............

 

“In the next few days I will meet with the president,” said Motta in his pre-match press conference ahead of Monday’s clash against Juventus.

 

“We will make a decision together and communicate it jointly. The time has come to do so, but it must be done internally and with great respect for everyone.”

 

If Saputo fails to convince Motta to stay put, the latter will likely head to Turin in the coming weeks.

Di Marzio: Thiago Motta gave his word to Juventus, Allegri was hoping for farewell

 

 

Italian football journalist Gianluca Di Marzio claims Thiago Motta has already pledged his word to Juventus.

 

It has been an eventful few days at Continassa, to say the least. The Bianconeri sacked Allegri for his fiery outburst in Coppa Italia final, a clash he ironically won. ............

 

 

“Motta hasn’t signed anything yet but he has a commitment to Juventus for a three-year deal,” said Di Marzio during his appearance on Sky Sport Italia.

 

“He has already made the decision to join the Bianconeri.” ............

 

“I don’t know what Allegri’s plans are at the moment. These were delicate hours.

 

“He was expecting to remain on the bench to greet the fans on the final day of the season. Now there are also legal conflicts, so I don’t think he’s thinking about another job.”

Did Saelemaekers spill the beans on Thiago Motta future?

 

Bologna winger Alexis Saelemaekers had a few words of praise for his manager Thiago Motta, and many believe the Belgian may have revealed too much.

 

The Italo-Brazilian has been heavily linked with a switch to Juventus at the end of the season after guiding the Rossoblu towards a historic Champions League qualification while playing an exciting brand of football. ............

 

Nevertheless, many believe that Motta already has an agreement in principle to join Juventus next season.

 

Moreover, Saelemaekers’ statement last night may have spilled the beans, as many fans and observers consider it a farewell message to the seemingly departing coach.

 

“Thank you mister for everything you did for us. It was incredible,” said the former Milan winger in his post-match interview with DAZN following last night’s thrilling 3-3 draw between Bologna and Juventus. ............

 

Motta remains the heavy favorite for the role, and the only candidate that the Juventus management is currently in contact with, according to all accounts.

How Motta plans to end his time at Bologna

 

 

Thiago Motta remains under contract with Bologna for a few more days, and they want him to sign a new contract.

 

However, Juventus wants him to become their new manager and has already tabled an offer for his signature. ............

 

The decision now rests with Motta, and everyone is waiting for his final choice, but he seems inclined to join Juve.

 

To make this move, he must leave Bologna. Out of respect for them, he has agreed to one more meeting to discuss his future.

 

Motta plans to ask for total control over the team and key decision-making, including player signings.

 

This demand is likely to be difficult for Bologna’s owners to accept, and if his wishes are not met, he will walk away from the team. ............

Motta is considered the main target for the Bianconeri job, and Juventus is exclusively focused on securing his services. They are not currently engaging with any other coaches. ............

 

Juve will be looking for quick success from Motta when he becomes their manager, and Lanzafame has explained why he thinks the former midfielder could succeed at the Allianz Stadium, he said:

 

“Personally, I have to admit that Thiago Motta is the revelation among the coaches in circulation in Italy and has the right profile for Juventus. He has personality, competence and knows relate to all the members, transmitting confidence and increasingly encouraging their players to do the best they can, so I say that Thiago Motta has everything to be the Juventus coach.” ............

Journalist says Rabiot’s relationship with Motta better than with Allegri

 

 

Juventus fans are concerned that Adrien Rabiot may seek to leave the club following the departure of Max Allegri.

 

Rabiot shared a strong rapport with the former manager, emphasising Allegri’s trust as a key factor in his decision to sign a new contract last summer. ............

 

Having previously played together at PSG, Motta and Rabiot maintain a positive relationship. Journalist Alfredo Pedullà has even suggested that Rabiot may hold Motta in higher regard than Allegri.

 

He said:

 

“There is another thing to say and not to be overlooked about Rabiot: he has a truly special relationship with Thiago Motta, for some verses even superior to the already excellent one he had with Allegri.

 

“The future Juventus coach almost adopted him in Paris, taking him under his protective wing and sheltering him from any type of draft. So, the ball passes to the mother-agent, Mrs. Veronique: if the request for a salary wasn’t really exorbitant and didn’t trigger an auction, Juve and Rabiot could get married again. And it would be an important solution.” ............

Details of Juventus Offer to Lure Thiago Motta Leak in Public

 

 

In the expectation of a new dawn at Juventus, Calciomercato reveal the details of Bianconeri’s contract offer to Bologna manager Thiago Motta. Viewed as the perfect man for the job, the ex-Inter midfielder is the only worthy successor to Massimiliano Allegri in the eyes of Cristiano Giuntoli. 

 

Juventus have been working on this deal for months. However, Giuntoli waits until the end of the season to take talks to a new level. It’s almost certain that Motta will take a hot seat in Turin over the summer. And he’ll be duly rewarded for choosing the Allianz Arena as his next destination.

 

Per the report, Juventus have pitched Motta with a three-year contract proposal worth €5 million per season. On top of that, they’ve reportedly promised to back the 41-year-old in the transfer market, starting with the signing of Bologna defender Riccardo Calafiori. ............

 

But Bologna have pieced together a counter-proposal to convince their coach to turn his back on Juventus. Rossoblu president Joey Saputo has allegedly vowed to invest around €100m over the next three years if Motta signs a last-minute contract extension. 

 

That scenario looks far-fetched. Juventus shouldn’t be worried about Saputo’s effort, but Barcelona could make them sweat. It’s said Joan Laporta wants to see Xavi Hernandez out at the end of the season, identifying Motta as a potential replacement. ............

Thiago Motta to Juventus is basically a done deal

Juve’s next manager is all set to be who you thought it would be.

 

 

 

Juventus’ next managerial hire appears to be on the cusp of involving somebody shaking hands with his new boss and posing for a few photos with smiles on their faces.

 

Yes, we’ve reached that point of being a couple of small steps away from officially official.

 

According to multiple reports out of Italy through the day on Wednesday, Juventus and current Bologna manager Thiago Motta have essentially agreed to a deal that will see the Brazil-born tactician move to Turin this summer. Motta, who has been with Bologna since the early weeks of the 2022-23 season, is expected to inform the Bologna board of his decision over the next day or two, according to reports, and will then sign with Juventus after the season comes to a close this weekend.

 

Motta will reportedly earn €4 million a season at Juventus. His contract will be for three years, with the third year either being fully guaranteed or an option season depending on who you go to for the information. ............

 

The challenge now is to try and get Juventus back on track and built in the way for Motta to play the kind of football he wants to play. That certainly won’t be totally achieved in one transfer window, but many expect Juventus to be more active this summer than they were a year ago when their only new addition was Timothy Weah. ............

Motta has done a fantastic job at the home of the Red and Blues, and his team’s qualification for next season’s Champions League has made him one of the top-rated managers.

 

Juve has no doubt that he is the man for their team after Max Allegri left his role as their manager days ago. ............

 

Motta is meeting with Bologna today, and their president hopes to convince him to stay and announce after the meeting that he will sign a new deal.

 

However, the report also adds that it is likely Motta will inform them of his decision to leave and take the opportunity at Juventus. ............
