Marcello Lippi is preparing to leave "Juventus"? © EuroFootball.com

It is already being said at the Italian champions "Juventus" club that Marcelo Lippi will leave the team after this season and look for a new club.

Throughout his coaching career, Lippi has achieved a lot and is mentioned as one of the best strategists in the world, but so far he has not coached a foreign club.

Asked if he would agree to coach the Italian national team, the coach replied that he would not want to take Trapattoni's place.

Currently, the "Juventus" coach is seriously considering leaving Italy after this season and coaching the Madrid "Real" club, whose coach may lose his position after a sensational defeat to the "Monaco" club in the Champions League quarterfinals.

This season has been a poor one for Marcelo Lippi. Juventus unexpectedly withdrew from the Champions League in the quarterfinals, and in the Serie A championship, they almost no longer have a chance to catch up to the leading Milan club. The only title that Juventus can still compete for is the Italian Cup. In the first game of the cup final against "Lazio," they lost 2-0.
