Former Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri is happy to wait for the right job to became available rather than rush back into football, according to his agent.
Allegri has been linked with the Manchester United vacancy and Sportsmail reported earlier in January that he is holding out to see if Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is axed as manager at Old Trafford.
According to his agent, Giovanni Branchini, Allegri is not necessarily just preparing for life in England.
'I don't think Allegri will return particularly soon. He says he's intensifying his English lessons, but I am not so sure about that,' Branchini told Radio Anch'io Sport.
'Jokes aside, he is happy to have a year off. Sometimes you need to stop and see things from a different angle.
'I am certain that from next season he'll be happy to resume his professional journey.'
Branchini said that Allegri is open to taking a job outside of Italy.
'It’s difficult to make predictions, as so much depends on how some clubs do in the Champions League. At this moment, it’d be really just baseless speculation.'

Morata ?? He is still better than Sarri ! Do you think a good coach having Juve players would lose to a mid table team twice in a matter of 10 days with same result ! The super cup was important yet he did the same mistakes as the previous game.
You called that Lazio team a mid table team . That’s is absolutely crazy 😜 and they would have killed Allegri is team ten times

Allegri is dumb not a good coach. He messed up at AC milan and with the help of Juventus greatnesses he won things . Sarri did awesomely with Napoli, won with Chelsea and doing great with Juventus. Let Allegri take up a new job . Then we talk more . Now he’s running from every possible jobs . How long will he run . He’s looking for a ready made club . Look at what conte is doing with inter .

Bring this guy to Red Devils, we need a coach with command not a negotiator . We need a football trump at old Trafford.

Most defo he will pitch up the Old Trafford, just a matter of when will the Glazers get tired of OGS 'explanations as to why they struggle like this,even worse that their marksman Rashford ,their piller Mctominay are out injured,include the questionable Pogba,these all make things tough for OGS,,it's just a question of when,but he'll get the boot soon and in comes Allegri!

Allegri is not a good coach and he knows it . He was absolutely luck there was already a solid project at Juventus and with the help of the players and morata he was easy to manage. He didn’t improve on the team or players. I bet him to take up a new job . And we will all see how bad he truly is

I'm Sure he will. Its been almost a year now. He must have squandered what he earned from Juve
He is actually still under contract now.
