Max Allegri given vote of confidence by Juventus

The mood at the Old Lady signals a significant change from that of just a few months ago when the club were deducted 15 points as punishment for capital gain violations with Allegri’s days at the club also seemingly numbered.

Juve have started this term strongly, however, and despite the distraction of Paul Pogba’s long-term suspension for failing a drugs test looming, the Italian giants have quickly found their groove this year- winning four of their first six matches.

The Old Lady take a trip to Bergamo tomorrow to take on Atalanta in a mouth-watering clash.
