Andrea Pirlo admits he would choose to coach Juventus again, although he didn’t expect to be sacked.

Juventus announced Pirlo’s sacking after his first season as their head coach.

Massimiliano Allegri is ready to replace the former midfielder in the Bianconeri dug-out.

“My first season as a coach is over. It was a complicated and marvellous season at the same time,” Pirlo wrote on Instagram.

“When Juventus called me, I never thought about the risks, even though they were pretty evident. The respect for this club prevailed and the same is true of my desire to play at the highest levels.

“If I could go back in time, I would make the same choice, despite all the obstacles I had to face, linked with a difficult situation for everybody which didn’t allow me to plan my choices and follow my playing style.

“However, I reached the required goals. This adventure ended in a way I didn’t expect but has made my future even clearer.

“I hope it will be full of the same satisfaction I’ve had as a footballer. It’s time to start again and face new challenges, I want to thank those of the Juventus family who supported me during the season.”
