#3 Pjanic expects a "great manager" to replace Allegri at Juventus

Miralem Pjanic expects his club to appoint a great coach, even as Juventus are linked with Maurizio Sarri. Since the departure of Allegri at the end of last season, the hot seat in Turin has remained vacant, and Juventus are also falling behind their rivals due to a consequent lack of transfer activity, but the Bosnian is hardly worried, as he revealed:

"We are not worried at all, Juventus will be strong as always."

Pjanic appeared for Bosnia against Italy last night at Juventus's home ground, the Allianz Stadium. He could feature in the game after the red card he picked up against Greece was overturned.

Even while on international duty, Pjanic was quick to remind everyone that his club was still in his thoughts.

"I repeat, I'm not worried about Juventus. They'll announce the new manager soon.

"As everyone is saying, our new manager will be a great one, for sure."
