Departing Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini is being linked with Juventus.

The Daily Express says Juventus have earmarked Pellegrini as the man they want if Massimiliano Allegri is lured to Stamford Bridge.

Juventus are steeling themselves for an approach from Chelsea for Allegri, who steered them to the Serie A title last season and who will only have one year of his contract left this summer.

Pellegrini has already revealed that he will be leaving the club at the end of this season to be replaced by Pep Guardiola.
