Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri shared his thoughts on Jose Mourinho’s dismissal from Roma.

The Italian technician looked back on his long-time rival and discussed Roma’s decision in an interview with Sky Sport.

“I’m saddened by this,” said Allegri. “Italian football is losing an important coach given what he did in his career and also at Roma, where he did an extraordinary job.”

“From the outside it all seems easy, but instead he really did a great job, the results demonstrate it and I’m also saddened because of the relationship we have. I wish him good luck in his future endeavors.”

“De Rossi? It will be an important test for him I also wish him good luck as he is at the beginning of his career.”
