Massimiliano Allegri is expected to leave Juventus at the end of the season with Zinedine Zidane lined up, claims Mundo Deportivo.

The 51-year-old tactician has been in Turin since July 2014, when he was brought in as a last-minute replacement for Antonio Conte, who quit two days into pre-season training.

Allegri has won four consecutive Serie A and Coppa Italia Doubles, plus the Italian Super Cup and reached two Champions League Finals.

Allegri has won four consecutive Serie A and Coppa Italia Doubles, plus the Italian Super Cup and reached two Champions League Finals.

Although he is under contract until June 2020, the former Milan boss could walk away for a new challenge, especially if he finally manages to win the Champions League.

According to Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo, his heir on the Juventus bench will be ex-Real Madrid Coach Zidane.

It’d be a return to Turin for the 46-year-old, who played for the Bianconeri from 1996 to 2001.

Zidane was only in charge of Real Madrid from January 2016 to May 2018, but still managed to become the first tactician ever to win three consecutive Champions League trophies.

He also won the 2016-17 Liga title, the Spanish Super Cup, two editions of the UEFA Super Cup and two Club World Cups.

This is certainly not the first time that the rumour of a planned Zidane future at Juventus post-Allegri has emerged.
