Braida himself admitted that Allegri is in contention, “Allegri is a friend and we know each other very well, but it’s really not something we can talk about – it’s all top secret.”

“There’s a different name coming out every day in the Spanish media, from [Ernesto] Valverde to [Jorge] Sampaoli, from [Ronald] Koeman to Eusebio, who is coach of Real Sociedad and is a part of the Barcelona family.”

“Everything is possible. It’s something I would prefer not to talk about.”
