In recent weeks, Andrea Pirlo’s future has been in the spotlight following Juventus’ disappointing results in the 2020-2021 season.
Andrea Pirlo actually presented the Coppa Italia trophy and the Italian Super Cup this season.
However, not a few parties considered the two titles unable to save Andrea Pirlo’s position.
