Di Marzio: Motta is the priority for Juventus

Transfer expert Gianluca di Marzio reports Bologna coach Thiago Motta is being discussed at Juventus.

Juve coach Max Allegri remains under pressure in Turin.

Di Marzio told Sky Italia: "(Cristiano) Giuntoli continues to defend Massimiliano Allegri and does well, but I believe that both parties have understood that the relationship can no longer be continued, then as whether they will break up will be decided in the meeting at the end of the season.

"Thiago Motta is always Giuntoli's chosen one, plan A. There is not, at least as far as I know, a plan B that could lead to Antonio Conte, even if it seems disrespectful to me to talk about it.

"The idea is to change compared to the past: Thiago Motta can also be a solution for Milan but I think it's too late, because Juve moved well ahead of the current Bologna coach."
