Our boss, Massimiliano Allegri, celebrates his 56th birthday today.
As ever, given the tough pre-season schedule, the boss will spend his birthday hard at work, along with his team, as they travel to Romagna for the friendly against Atalanta in Cesena on August 12.
Allegri is set to commence his eighth season on the bench at the Allianz Stadium, of course across two spells with the Bianconeri.
"Being at Juventus brings out emotions that are renewed every single day and have been for years," Allegri himself said a number of weeks ago as the Agnelli family marked 100 years with the club. "It has always been a huge honour for me to lead this club, to see young talent grow, to achieve on-field goals and to win trophies and give the fans something to celebrate.
"It's an experience that stays with you forever, and one in which the Agnelli family has always known how to make its presence felt, discretely but constantly."
Those words alone show that Massimiliano knows how much it means to be our coach.
We can only wish him, from the very bottom of our hearts, a happy birthday and a successful start to the new season.
Many happy returns, boss!
