Massimiliano Allegri hails 'historic' season

Massimiliano Allegri says that Juventus are "completely focused" on winning the Champions League and the Coppa Italia.

Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri has admitted that he did not expect his side to be on the verge of completing a historic treble at the beginning of the season.

The Bianconeri have already wrapped up a fourth straight Serie A title and they are also in the finals of the Champions League and the Coppa Italia.

"I came here thinking that we could have a fantastic season but I did not think that in May we would still be here at the end of all the competitions," he told JTV.

"But we have the championship and we are completely focused on winning the other two competitions. This year is one in the history of Juventus that we can tell our children and grandchildren of when we grow old.

"At this point of the season, the challenge for us is to maintain the condition and try to peak on June 6 [in the Champions League final] but before that, we play the Coppa Italia against a team who are very good and any final is always a difficult game."

Juventus last won the Champions League in 1996, while they have not been victorious in the Coppa Italia since 1995.
