TURIN – President Juventus, Andrea Agnelli, reportedly began evaluating the performance of the tactician Bianconeri – nicknamed Juventus – namely Andrea Pirlo. According to a Tuttosport report, Sunday (1/11/2020), if until the end of November 2020 Pirlo fails to lift Juventus’ performance, Agnelli will kick the 41-year-old coach and replace him with Massimiliano Allegri.
Pirlo was appointed as Juventus coach on August 8, 2020. The man with the Italian passport became Juventus coach after replacing Maurizio Sarri, who had just brought the Old Lady to the 2019-2020 Italian League champions.

The decision of Juventus management to appoint Pirlo as coach is very surprising. Because, Pirlo did not have managerial experience before being appointed as Juventus tactician. Previously on July 30, 2020, Pirlo was appointed as coach of Juventus U-23. However, having not yet handled Juventus U-23, Pirlo was promoted to the senior team.
As a result, Pirlo failed to boost Juventus’ performance. In the first five matches of the Italian League 2020-2021, Pirlo only led Juventus to collect two wins and three draws.
While in the Champions League, Alvaro Morata and his friends only got three points in the first two matches. Therefore, according to the Tuttosport report, if Pirlo fails to bring Juventus to a positive result in November 2020, he will be expelled from his post.

Throughout this November, Juventus will face three Italian League matches, namely against Spezia (away), Lazio (away) and Cagliari (home). Meanwhile in the Champions League, Juventus face Ferencvaros in home and away matches.
If a negative result is obtained, Allegri comes on for Pirlo. Allegri is not new to Juventus. Previously from 2014-2019, Allegri had handled Juventus.

During that period, Allegri gave 11 trophies for Juventus and five of them were Italian League titles. The good relationship between Agnelli and Allegri is believed to be the reason for the two of them to collaborate again.
In fact, sporting director Fabio Paratici and Juventus vice president Pavel Nedved do not have a good relationship with Allegri. For your information, the two names above encourage Agnelli to terminate Allegri’s cooperation with Juventus in the summer of 2019.
However, for the sake of the club’s rescue mission, the ego was removed. Therefore, the Allegri-Juventus collaboration has the potential to occur in the near future if Pirlo fails to boost the Bianconeri’s achievements.
