According to The Sun, Allegri “believes he does not get the credit he deserves” in Italy and “has a strained relationship with the Italian Press”, while the Coach’s rapports with Gianluigi Buffon and Paulo Dybala are “tetchy”.
The above factors combined, the newspaper explains, will see him leave Juve in the summer and pursue the reins at Arsenal, where Wenger “is expected to call time on his 20-year spell” at the helm this summer.
Indeed, the former Milan and Cagliari trainer is said to be on a five-man shortlist alongside RB Leipzig’s Ralph Hasenhuttl, Bournemouth’s Eddie Howe, Arsenal legend Dennis Bergkamp and Atletico Madrid’s Diego Simeone.
The Sun cites Allegri’s “impressive record of working on a budget and still obtaining staggering success in one of Europe’s top Leagues” as reasons for his employment at the Emirates Stadium, plus the opportunity to manage Alexis Sanchez – Juve’s “No 1 target in the summer”.
Furthemore, the 49-year-old “would love to pit himself against” his Juve predecessor Antonio Conte, now at Chelsea and given the former Italy CT is said to have laid the foundations for Allegri’s two Scudetti and Coppe Italia.
