Capello in pole for Juve job
Monday 12 April, 2010
England manager Fabio Capello is in pole position to become the next Coach of Juventus, according to Turin based newspaper Tuttosport.
As Alberto Zaccheroni's time in charge of the Bianconeri comes to a close, speculation is mounting as to who will succeed him at the Olimpico.
Juventus have been linked with several big names, but three keep cropping up: Rafa Benitez, Cesare Prandelli and Capello.
Tuttosport understands the Bianconeri have given up hope of luring Benitez amid competition from Real Madrid who are apparently lining him up to replace Manuel Pellegrini.
Prandelli has also intimated that he will stay at Fiorentina after the club's patron Diego Della Valle forced the issue earlier this month.
That leaves Capello who is said to have rejected an offer made by Juventus President Jean-Claude Blanc over a month ago.
However, Tuttosport believes Capello will re-think his decision while at the World Cup in South Africa this summer.
The 63-year-old has a tendency of going back to his old stomping grounds, having coached Milan and Real Madrid twice in his career.
I guess Rab gonna feel very depressed if this really happens
