Arsenal getting green light from potential Wenger replacement Allegri?

It looks like it is not just the Arsenal fans and the players in the current squad who are being left in limbo by Arsene Wenger and the club and all this talk about the decision on his future as our manager being made at some unspecified time in the vague and distant future.

According to the Daily Star the current Juventus boss, who is widely reported to be one of the favourites to take over in north London if the Frenchman steps down, is keen to know just where he stands. In fact the paper claims that Massimiliano Allegri has told the powers that be at Arsenal thast he needs to know in no less than three weeks if the job is going to be his or not.

It seems that the Italian coach is passing on the pressure and the deadline that he has received from his own club, with the Serie A champions pushing him to sign a new contract or let them know that he will be leaving in the summer. Allegri has a great record at Juve and before and he looks certain to lead then to another title this year.

So if the Arsenal rumours are true then Allegri does want the job and surely Wenger or someone on the board at Arsenal will give him the thumbs up soon.

Bob.
