Massimiliano Allegri describes Juventus’ season as ‘historic’, and predicts people will tell their children about it.
The Bianconeri have already secured the Scudetto, and are in the final of both the Champions League and the Coppa Italia.
“This is a historic year for Juventus, one to tell our children about when we’re old,” Allegri told JTV.
“I came here thinking we could have a fantastic season, [but] I didn’t think we’d be in the final of all competitions in May.

The Bianconeri have already secured the Scudetto, and are in the final of both the Champions League and the Coppa Italia.
“This is a historic year for Juventus, one to tell our children about when we’re old,” Allegri told JTV.
“I came here thinking we could have a fantastic season, [but] I didn’t think we’d be in the final of all competitions in May.
“We can’t ask for more than this after the League, and now we want to bring home the other two trophies.
“Now we must work to end our season in an extraordinary way.
“At this point of the season we have to maintain our condition to try to get to June 6 [the Champions League final] in top condition.
“We’re having a great season, and now we’re in two very important finals.
“First of all we’ll try to win the Coppa Italia. The players, staff and coaches of the past few years will go down in history.
“We’ll play the Coppa Italia against a very good team, and it’s clearly difficult, because it’s a final.
“As for the Champions League, it’s possible to beat Barcelona in a one-off game. Over two legs it would be very difficult.
“In a one-off game anything can happen, so we’ll see who’s in the best shape in a month’s time.”
The Old Lady’s European campaign has given Serie A’s coefficient a significant boost, and Allegri hopes Fiorentina and Napoli can continue that in the Europa League.
“We hope the other two teams can make it to the Europa League final. Italian football is not something to be dismissed, quite the opposite.”
Finally, the former Milan Coach reflected on his side’s Scudetto win, with the title having been wrapped up two weeks ago.
“We had a great League campaign, where Juve were always in the lead,” Allegri recalled.
“In the second half of the season we had two bad performances, against Cesena and Parma.
“Against Parma we could say that it’s because we were playing a Champions League quarter-final [against Monaco], the lads did well to react.
“We had a great season, maintaining our balance.”
