Massimiliano Allegri Will Take 'Fantastic' Chelsea Deal, Says Giovanni Galeone

Giovanni Galeone, former mentor of Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri, believes the Italian will accept a "fantastic" deal reportedly offered by Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich to take over at Stamford Bridge this summer.

Per Sacha Pisani of Goal, the 75-year-old—who managed Allegri at Pescara in his playing career—told Radio Radio:

I think Max will go to Chelsea and will do very well. Allegri is doing incredible things, even if the club failed to buy the players he requested last summer: from Mario Gotze, to Isco.

He will leave Italy, and I see him going to England because the deal Roman Abramovich has offered is really fantastic.
