"Turin's 'Juventus' leaders have started to think that they made a mistake before the season by hiring an inexperienced coach Andrea Pirlo. As 'La Repubblica' wrote, the 41-year-old Italian's head is beginning to fill with dark clouds, as good results are not being demonstrated in the 'Serie A' championships. 'Juventus' would willingly negotiate with world-renowned strategists Jurgen Klopp or Josep Guardiola, but simply do not have the money for their salaries, and the specialists themselves are unlikely to leave England. According to the press, the Turin club will settle for more modest wishes and hold negotiations with Italian championship strategists who have shown good results. These include Gian Piero Gasperini (Bergamo's 'Atalanta'), Simone Inzaghi (Rome's 'Lazio'), and Luciano Spalletti (without a club). The club is also considering the return of Massimo Allegri, but this is hindered by the poor relationship between the Italian and 'Old Lady' leaders Pavel Nedved and Fabio Paratici. 'Juventus' is not considering the possibility of sacking A. Pirlo during the season yet, but if the situation worsens, the current assistant Igor Tudor will be appointed as interim coach."
