Allegri was the perfect match for Juventus, says Szczesny

The ex-Gunners man was glowing in his praise of the outgoing trainer and veteran defender Andrea Barzagli, who is retiring after a glittering career

Former Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny has paid a glowing tribute to departing Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri ahead of his final game in charge.

The 51-year-old bows out after five years at the helm of the Bianconeri on Sunday when they wrap up another triumphant Serie A campaign at Sampdoria.

Allegri has spearheaded title success in all five seasons in charge and his team are currently 11 points clear of their nearest rivals Napoli, losing only three league games all season.
