Spanish reports claimed on Tuesday that Juventus' current coach Andrea Pirlo and  Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane could take charge in Turin.

"The Frenchman played for the Bianconeri from 1996 to 2001 before making the move to Los Blancos, who he represented until his retirement in 2006. When asked about his future beyond the end of this season, Zidane has been non-committal." Marca reported.

According to the Italian newspaper, there are two names on the table when it comes to replacing Pirlo: Massimiliano Allegri or Zidane.

"Juve's situation suggests, or almost imposes, the choice of a strong, charismatic and experienced figure," reads one line in Gazzetta's piece.
