Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri said questions regarding his future will be resolved in the next couple of weeks after the Bianconeri s slump continued with Sunday s 1-1 draw with Salernitana.
Juve looked set for a humiliating Serie A loss at home to Stefano Colantuono s already-relegated side, only for Adrien Rabiot to equalise in stoppage time.
It was a fifth straight league draw for Allegri s side, who have slipped to fourth in Serie A, seven points behind second-placed Milan and level with Bologna in third.
Juve were neck-and-neck with recently crowned Scudetto winners Inter at the turn of the year, and their dismal end to the season has seen Allegri s position called into question.
Asked about his future on Sunday, Allegri said: Just be patient a little bit longer, in 10 to 15 days you ll know what will happen next year.
Anyone who has played football knows that even the great teams can experience a moment of difficulty when the games become tough. We will certainly have to grow.
9 5 In 2024 only Heidenheim (10) have drawn more matches than (9/18) in the Big-5 European leagues. The Bianconeri registered 5 draws in a row in Serie A for the first time since the period between April and May 2009. Draw.

Wednesday s Coppa Italia final against in-form Atalanta presents an opportunity for redemption.
The final against a team like Atalanta that has grown a lot will certainly be balanced, Allegri said. It s a one-off game and we will have to try to make as few mistakes as possible.
Regarding Sunday s match, the 56-year-old said the performance was not satisfactory but stressed the importance of avoiding defeat.
We started reasonably well, then made a mistake in our decision-making. We became disjointed and we didn t hold our positions, he said.
You can t lose a match like that, otherwise you risk never picking yourselves back up again.
