Juventus have been ordered to pay almost €10m to Cristiano Ronaldo, and according to Tuttosport, this could impact Massimiliano Allegri’s future as the Bianconeri would need to pay nearly €20m to sack the coach and his staff.
Juventus boss Allegri is facing an uncertain future at the Allianz Stadium despite a contract expiring in 2025. Multiple reports in Italy claim the Bianconeri will likely part company with the Italian tactician in the summer, but according to the latest report of Tuttosport, it’s easier said than done.
According to the report, sacking Allegri and his staff members would cost Juventus approximately €20m, while any successor would cost at least €8m.
How Cristiano Ronaldo ruling could impact Allegri’s future at Juventus
It is no secret that Juventus must cut costs over the next few years, so Allegri’s sacking would clearly be a significant financial burden, which would be added to another recent blow dealt to Juventus by Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Portuguese striker had taken legal action against the club to get €19.5 in outstanding wages from his three-year spell in Turin. An arbitration board has ruled that Juventus must pay €9.8 instead, a fee that Juventus must add to their balance sheet after registering a €123.7m loss for 2022-23.
Former Cagliari coach Massimo Cellino has recently urged Juventus to extend Allegri’s contract by three more years.
