The Champions save the season finale, but not Pirlo’s bench. The future of Ronaldo and Paratici is also in doubt
The qualification for the Champions saves – partially – the season of the Juventus, but it does not dispel doubts about the future. Starting from the technical guide, passing by Fabio Paratici up to the technical leader in the field, Ronaldo. Who will the next Juve start from? At the moment it is difficult to unbalance. But there are some clues. CR7 finished with the title of top scorer but after more than a sign of intolerance, especially in recent weeks. Against the Bologna he did not take the field and after the final whistle he boarded his private plane, with destination Lisbon, after a social post of congratulations to the team for the Champions goal. The fifth bench stands out in three years, in the decisive challenge of the season, to many it seemed the appetizer of a farewell that could be consumed soon, net of the last year of the contract at 31 million net per season. Juve is waiting for communications from the Portuguese who at the moment have several interested clubs (Sporting, United e Psg) but no concrete offer on the desk of Mendes.
In the balance too Pirlo, Europe that matters does not lock its bench after a season with more shadows than lights. Among the lowest points the elimination in the Champions League in the round of 16, against Porto, and the farewell to the scudetto in fact in February. Too little Italian Cup e Super Cup for the certainty of permanence. Juve are evaluating alternatives, and the feeling is that they could greet the Maestro only in the face of the yes of a big player, Allegri o Zidane so to speak, otherwise trust Pirlo, who still has one year on his contract. On the other hand Paratici, and at the moment there are no imminent signs of renewal. The situation could unlock in the next few days, but the goodbye hypothesis remains strong: in that case the promotion of Cherubini, everything will be decided in the week. Juve are enjoying qualification for the Champions League but are starting to plan for the future, with or without Pirlo, Ronaldo and Paratici.
