Arsenal in advanced talks with Massimiliano Allegri to replace Arsene Wenger

Arsenal are in advanced talks with Massimiliano Allegri to replace Arsene Wenger at the end of the season, report the Express.

Wenger’s two-decade reign at the Emirates is set to come to an end in the summer as the boss has not yet signed a new deal.

It is alleged that Juventus boss Allegri’s representatives have been in long conversations with the Arsenal hierarchy as he could become a potential replacement.

A deal is reportedly far from agreed, but these are thought to be some of the most advanced talks that Arsenal have held with a potential Wenger replacement.

Juventus are on course to win their third Serie A title out of three under Allegri, who is likely to be given until March to tell the Italians of his stance ahead of the new season.
