Deschamps resigns as Juve coach
Deschamps took charge of Juventus last July
Didier Deschamps, 38, has resigned as Juventus coach despite successfully guiding them back to Italy's Serie A.
The former France captain took over at the Turin club last summer when Fabio Capello quit for Real Madrid following Juve's demotion for match-fixing.
Deschamps, who had signed a two-year deal, is expected to be on the bench for Saturday's home game with Mantova.
The Frenchman has already been linked with the vacant manager's post at Lyon following Gerard Houllier's departure.
Deschamps had spoken of his desire to manage Juventus in Italy's top-flight and held talks with the club's officials last week.
However, there were growing speculation in Italy that a new face would be brought in, with former Juventus and Italy coach Marcello Lippi amongst the names mentioned.
Deschamps helped Juventus win promotion to Serie A last weekend with a 5-1 win at Arezzo, despite carrying a nine-point deduction because of match-fixing allegations.
The former Chelsea player also won the Champions League with Juventus as a player in 1996 as well as the Serie A crown three times.
