Former Juventus coach Marcello Lippi says Massimiliano Allegri should be Manchester United manager - insisting he would be the "best choice".
Ex-Juve boss Allegri is out of work at present, though has been linked with the current vacancy at Bayern Munich.
Lippi told the Daily Mail: "Allegri would be good everywhere and as a great admirer of the English club I would be happy to see him take over.
My deep friendship with [Sir Alex] Ferguson allows me to say that he would be the best choice for United.
Allegri studies English and is perfect for the British style. He is prepared and shrewd. He reads the game with great ease.
He loves challenges and I respect him a lot, I think he is serious and prepared, I think he is a humble person. A great Italian who would do very well in England.
I can tell you that he is ready for United."
