New Juventus coach Max Allegri is in the process of putting together his backroom team.

Gazzetta dello Sport says Allegri's first assistant is to be Marco Landucci – who has been working with him since their time together at Cagliari.

Tactical aspects will be handled by Aldo Dolcetti, who grew up in the youth academy of the Old Lady, before returning years later as a coach. His relationship with Allegri dates back to their time at Pisa in 1988/1989 as teammates.

The other technical collaborator will be Maurizio Trombetta, who the manager has inherited from the staff of his mentor, Giovanni Galeone. He was also one of Allegri's coaches during his playing days, and has his full trust.

Simone Folletti – who joined Allegri at Spal – will become fitness chief.

Claudio Filippi remains the head of the goalkeeper's department – which is almost an independent sector at Continassa.

And Andrea Barzagli – who worked briefly as a part of Maurizio Sarri's staff – is expected to return as a liaison director, to work between coaching staff and the dressing room.
