‘Juve’d struggle in Super League’

Juventus Coach Max Allegri says he is not too bothered either about playing a Super League or about signing a trequartista.

The Bianconeri's transfer campaign will start shortly, after tomorrow's 16:00 UK time game against Sampdoria and the Saturday, May 21 Coppa Italia final against Milan.

It is widely believed that sporting director Beppe Marotta will finally sign a trequartista, but Allegri says it doesn't really matter.

Juventus Coach Max Allegri says he is not too bothered either about playing a Super League or about signing a trequartista.

The Bianconeri's transfer campaign will start shortly, after tomorrow's 16:00 UK time game against Sampdoria and the Saturday, May 21 Coppa Italia final against Milan.

It is widely believed that sporting director Beppe Marotta will finally sign a trequartista, but Allegri says it doesn't really matter.

“What we need is players of great quality,” he told the Press. “It doesn't matter what role they play in. Leave that to me, I'll find some way to arrange them in front of the defence.

“[Roberto] Pereyra should be in the game tomorrow, and Neto will play, because I'm going to use him in the final.

“It's only fair to give him a few games. He played in Verona and tomorrow he'll have another one, just so he can find his feet again on the pitch and develop some confidence.”

There are plans to set up a Super League with all of Europe's top clubs, but the matter did not interest Allegri greatly.

“It's hard to imagine that because every hierarchy would change. I don't know how the broadcasting rights would be distributed and frankly this isn't my business.

“It would certainly be a very competitive league so we'd have to fight to carve out our space.

“Hernanes will be playing tomorrow. You basically have my whole formation now.

“[Paulo] Dybala and [Mario] Mandzukic should play too. [Alvaro] Morata is doing fine. The only injured player is [Sami] Khedira, whose odds of playing the final are very low.”
