The Italian champions chose a legend that exploded during a two-year contract with 41-year-old A. Pirlo.
As a coach, his experience is small: he was only appointed as a youth team strategist in July, but in soccer, the Italian experience is as extensive as the ocean.
Pirlo has played 164 games for Juventus from 2011 to 2015 and won 4 Italian championship titles when he moved to Turin from Milan.

With Milan, A. Pirlo has won the Champions League twice and the Italian championship twice.
He played 116 games for the Italian national team and helped win the 2006 World Cup gold.

As coach of Juventus, he will try to repeat the path of Pep Guardiola and Zinedine Zidane. They also coached the youth teams of Barcelona and Real Madrid, respectively, after winning many titles with the men’s teams.
“Everything has to be earned by accumulating experience,” Pirlo said.
Sarri fired Juventus from Turin on Saturday. The Italian champions left the Champions League on Friday when Cristiano Ronaldo scored two goals and a 2: 1 win at home to Lyon’s Olynmpique did not make up for the first match lost in France 0: 1, which cost Sarri the post.
