Juventus general manager Giuseppe Marotta denies Coach Massimiliano Allegri could join Chelsea – “Juve is a point of arrival”.
The tactician has been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge at the end of the season, after Jose Mourinho left the club and Guus Hiddink took over on a caretaker basis.
The former Milan boss has strongly denied the talk, and the Bianconeri's general manager has also ruled out a move to London.

The tactician has been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge at the end of the season, after Jose Mourinho left the club and Guus Hiddink took over on a caretaker basis.
The former Milan boss has strongly denied the talk, and the Bianconeri's general manager has also ruled out a move to London.
“When things go well a Coach’s value goes up,” Marotta admitted, speaking to Gr Parlamento.
“Juve is a point of arrival for a Coach, one of the world’s biggest clubs. It’s not easy to find a bigger team than Juventus, unless you consider it the end of a cycle.
“And the winning cycle can continue.”
Allegri’s predecessor, Antonio Conte, is expected to leave his role as Italy CT after Euro 2016, could he return to Turin one day?
“Conte had many successes and achievements at Juventus. He was here for several years, three seasons. He won a lot.
“It’s normal that the cycle comes to an end. Now he’s coaching the national team, but the relationship remains good.
“The fact that there are rumours that great teams are thinking about him proves that our choice was correct.
“A return? A recurring phrase in football is ‘never say never’, but the assumption is that our Coach will remain with us.
“I’m convinced that we’ll go forward with Allegri for many years.”
