Massimiliano Allegri has rejected speculation he could replace Gian Piero Ventura as Italy coach following the Azzurri's shock failure to qualify for the World Cup.
Ventura was sacked after a 1-0 aggregate play-off loss to Sweden ensured the 2006 champions lost out on a place at Russia 2018 - the first World Cup Italy will miss in 60 years.
Allegri is reportedly among the front-runners for the post, along with names including former Juve and Italy coach Antonio Conte, Carlo Ancelotti and Roberto Mancini.
But while Allegri would be interested in coaching Italy later in his career, he is keen to stay with Juventus - who are seeking a fourth successive Serie A title under his leadership - for now.
