Massimiliano Allegri got the sack as manager of Juventus after the outburst in the cup final against Atalanta in May.

Now the Serie A club has found his replacement.

Thiago Motta has signed for three years.

"I'm really glad to start a new chapter at such a fantastic club as Juventus", he says.

Motta comes most recently from a strong season in Bologna, where he led the club to a fifth place in the table and Champions League play next season.
