The Serie A club lost the title to Inter and are at risk of missing out in the Champions League qualification.
Andrea Pirlo’s position is safe so far
Juve has no plans to decide on the future of coach Andrea Pirlo until the end of the season. The former Italian International presided over Juventus’ worst season since 2011, as they found themselves very short in their attempt to win their 10th Serie A title in a row. The defeat to AC Milan on Sunday cast doubt on their ability to secure a place in the top four, and with it the qualification of the Champions League, but Andrea Pirlo’s position is good so far.
Management considers firing Andrea Pirlo this week.
Sources on the topic can confirm that Juve maintains faith in his coach and will be charged with playing against Sassuolo on Wednesday. Italian reports claimed that Juventus is considering firing Andrea Pirlo this week and placing Igor Tudor under temporary control, but the proposal has been rebutted.
Pirlo is not satisfied with the season
With three games remaining in the Serie A season, Juve sits in fifth in the table and point downstream of Napoli and three behind Atalanta and Milan. Following the trip to Sassuolo Juve entertains the Serie A Inter champions and ends the league season with an away game in Bologna and while they are disappointed to see Juventus take their Serie A crown, Inter hopes that Andrea Pirlo can control three wins and secure his qualification for the Champions League. At that point, the club’s board would decide whether to give Andrea Pirlo a second season at the helm or make changes on this point. If they are short in the top four, Andrea Pirlo’s position is likely to fail.
