The future of Ivan Juric, barring twists or U-turns not yet foreseen, is marked and will be far from Turin. The Croatian coach had in unsuspecting times linked his stay to European qualification, while in recent weeks president Cairo had in fact anticipated his farewell at the end of this championship.
“I invested a lot at his request. He didn’t want to renew and the contracts ended. Last year he asked me to take Ilic. I told him ‘I’m making this investment because you ask me to, he’s a very strong player, but I want you to stay with us’. He said ‘but yes’. Then the thing slipped, then he took time and wanted to keep the doors open. The contracts end at a certain point…”, were the words of the number one grenade that tasted like farewell.
The future, second Tuttosport, will most likely be in France. Having said of the renewed interest of West Bromwich Albion, an English club that had already made moves for him in the past, according to the newspaper there are 3 French clubs that have already tested the waters in view of next season: specifically it is Nice (who will lose Farioli, headed to Ajax), Lens and Rennes.
