Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri is reportedly on the radar of Tottenham Hotspur as a potential replacement for Mauricio Pochettino.

According to The Express, Tottenham Hotspur are interested in appointing Massimiliano Allegri as their new manager.

Allegri is leaving Italian and European giants Juventus at the end of the season, and Tottenham are reportedly looking at the Italian as a potential replacement for Mauricio Pochettino.

The Express has claimed that Pochettino is the favourite to succeed Allegri at Juventus.

Blockbuster managerial appointment

Allegri is one of the best managers in the world, and if Pochettino leaves Spurs this summer, then the Italian will not be a bad appointment for the North London outfit at all.

The 51-year-old is a serial winner, having won Serie A once with AC Milan and the Scudetto five times with Juventus.

The Italian also guided Juve to the final of the Champions League in 2015 and 2017.

Tottenham, though, will have to provide Allegri with transfer funds to spend in the summer transfer window, and will also have to give assurance to him that they will not sell their best players.
