2. Massimiliano Allegri

Having had a strong playing career for the better part of two decades, Allegri found that he was also very well suited to management. He has had the majority of his success in Serie A, enjoying very strong runs at Sassuolo and Milan before building a dynasty at Juventus.

Whilst admittedly he doesn’t have the highest competition, Allegri boasts a 72% winning record in 259 matches in charge with the Italian giants. He looks very likely to win his 5th consecutive Scudetto as Juve manager this season, having won 4 Coppa Italia’s in the process.

Importantly, he has also had some great success in the Champions League. He has taken Juve to 2 finals in 4 seasons and has a definite shot at winning it this season with Cristiano Ronaldo in town. With speculation about him going elsewhere this summer, his departure would be a big blow for Juve.
