His departure from CHELSEA has led to alot of speculation in the media about who could take over from Pochettino and the impressing Thiago Motta has been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge.
The speculation surrounding Motta’s next move has been rife, with multiple reports indicating that he could also replace Massimiliano Allegri at Juventus. Allegri was dismissed following a controversial Coppa Italia victory after his explosive behaviour, including a rant at match officials and alleged manhandling of the chief editor of Tuttosport, was deemed “incompatible”.
Now the Italian side have confirmed that Motta has departed the club – Bologna released a statement that read: “This morning Thiago Motta informed the club of his intention not to renew his contract with Bologna FC 1909.
‘Having taken note of the decision, the club thanks the coach for his extraordinary work and wishes him the best of luck for the rest of his career.”
Bologna president Joey Saputo added: “In these two years I have met a prepared and winning coach, who has given the team a brilliant playing identity. The achievement of qualifying for the Champions League consigns him and all the players to the history of our Club.
‘I would have liked him to stay at Bologna, but I can only thank him and his staff for these wonderful seasons and wish him the best for the future.”
The former CHELSEA star has proven himself to be a very good manager and to be honest – he would be a better option than what the club are currently seeking in the window.
