Classic Juve smokescreen where we leak interest and then Milan or Roma hire Sarri while we reel in the big fish. All the puppet journalists will leak whatever we want but the real gurus know what's going on behind the scenes.
Edit: Do they even stop to think about what they're reporting and what it means? It means we fired Allegri without a replacement and were willing to be left holding our dicks. There are clear differences between Pep, Sarri, Conte, etc. They are all vastly different coaches. What these journos are saying is that we're comfortable with just any replacement?
"Ya we'll just fire Max and then lose all our leverage to find a new coach! And by the way, we're happy with Pep or Conte, two completely opposite coaches! We have no plan!"
The replacement is done, e fatta. We are just waiting to announce.
It doesn't even make sense in a business perspective. What do you think Conte/Sarri's wages will be when they know there is no coach at Juve? If we still have to negotiate with all these options, we would never have announced Max is sacked, so we don't look weak in negotiations.
