Brescia president Massimo Cellino says Juventus should stick with Max Allegri.

Cellino had Allegri as coach when president of Cagliari.

He told La Gazzetta dello Sport: “He is a champion, don’t forget that he is of the sign of Leo, so he must have confidence to express all his talent. Giuntoli is of Aquarius, the two signs can also coexist, but Leo always eats up Aquarius and is the true leade.

“If I were John Elkaan, I would start with Allegri and then I would sort out everything else. The Champions League is a bit as if he had won the championship that the club asked for.

“He made a heartfelt choice, he made me angry too when he said no to Real Madrid, but he thinks first of the club and then of himself, he is one of the few. If Giuntoli is intelligent, and he has proven to be, he starts from Max.

“There are no magicians in management, you need time in football. I would renew the contract for 3 years asking Allegri to spread the salary.”
