Andrea Pirlo takes first managerial role since being sacked by Juventus

Andrea Pirlo will soon be back in the dugout after being named the next manager of Fatih Karagumruk - one year after being sacked by Juventus.

The Italy legend was handed the top job in Turin two years ago but lasted just a season as his side scraped into the top four in Serie A after surrendering their stranglehold on the league title. Now, Pirlo has a chance to prove himself in Turkey with a side who finished eighth last term.

Fatih Karagumruk have only been back in the top flight since 2020, finishing in mid-table in each of their two seasons. Pirlo is tasked with challenging the established order as the club set their sights on the Super Lig title. Their current squad boasts ex-Liverpool star Fabio Borini and former Leicester man Ahmed Musa.

The club said in a statement: "The world-famous football man recently coached Juventus, one of the most important clubs in Europe. Having also had Champions League experience with Juventus, Pirlo signed the contract that made him a member of Karagumruk for 1 year, starting on 1 July.

"Andrea Pirlo's press conference will be held on Tuesday, June 14, and the place and time will be announced later by our club. We welcome our coach Andrea Pirlo and wish him success."
