SACKED! Juventus axe Allegri confirming Coppa celebrations a factor

Juventus have sacked coach Max Allegri 48 hours after winning the Coppa Italia final.

Jue confirmed in their statement that Allegri was axed for his behaviour in the post-match celebrations, which saw him clash with sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli and Tuttosport editor Guido Vaciago.

Juve announced on Friday afternoon: Juventus announces that it has relieved Massimiliano Allegri of his position as head coach of the men's first team.

The exoneration follows certain behaviours during and after the Coppa Italia final that the club deemed incompatible with the values of Juventus and the behaviour that those who represent it should have.

It ends a period of collaboration, which began in 2014, restarted in 2021 and ended, after the previous three seasons together, with the Italian Cup final.

The club wishes Massimiliano Allegri good luck in his future endeavours.'

Allegri becomes only the third coach in 50 years to be sacked by Juventus midseason.
