Italian legend explains why Tottenham man should leave for Serie A giants

Mauricio Pochettino has been backed to become Juventus manager this summer by none other than legendary Italian midfielder Andrea Pirlo.

The Tottenham Hotspur boss has just one game remaining this season – the Champions League final against Liverpool on June 1.

It’s been a superb season for the north Londoners, who secured another top four finish despite having signed no new players for the past two transfer windows.

It will be truly remarkable if Pochettino can deliver the most prestigious trophy in club football.

Should he do that, speculation about his future will surely increase again following recent comments about possibly leaving the club.

For Bianconeri star Pirlo reckons he’d be a great replacement for Max Allegri in Turin.

He said, as quoted by Calciomercato: “He has an identity like Juve, he is a modern coach who has done a lot in the English league. Modern coach does not mean only the construction of the game, but everything. It comes from Spanish football, it’s a collection of things.”

TBR’s view

If Pochettino wins the Champions League then it will arguably make him football’s most sought-after coach.

Allegri’s future is apparently uncertain, and the Argentine would be a fantastic replacement.

Juventus is a huge club with a colossal lure, so Spurs fans will be desperately hoping Daniel Levy can give the South American tactician reason enough to stick around.
