Juventus are set to reappoint Serie A title winning coach, Max Allegri with the dismissal of Andrea Pirlo after a disappointing season which saw the the Old Lady dethroned as Italian champions.

Allegri is expected to sign a contract with Juventus in the next 24 hours; Pirlo led Juve to the Coppa Italia but failed to deliver a 10th Serie A title in a row and only secured a Champions League spot on the final day of the season which by Juventus standard is poor given their dominance in the Italy top flight for nine straight seasons.

Allegri initially joined Juventus in 2014, leading the club to four straight league and cup doubles before a fifth successive Serie A win in his final season in charge in 2019.

He has since been out of work when he left the Turin club to be replaced by Maurizio Sarri.

Allegri also led the club to two Champions League finals, losing to Barcelona and Real Madrid.

The fate of Andrea Pirlo is unknown whether he will return to coach the Juventus youth squad or leave the club eventually.
