Former Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Thiago Motta has become one of the hot commodities for top European clubs looking for a new manager. The 41-year-old has guided Bologna to the UEFA Champions League for next season, and his work isn’t going unnoticed.
Juventus and Manchester United are reportedly keen on Motta leaving Bologna this summer. Motta and his team will face Juventus on Monday, so his future is even more of a topic of discussion considering the opponent.
Nonetheless, Motta isn’t making any decisions now and will wait until the season is over to decide his future, as he told reporters.
“I’ll meet with Bologna president in the next few days to make my final decision,” Motta said. “It’s time to decide now, but we’ve to discuss internally and respect all parties involved.”
Juventus have offered Motta a three-year deal, as the Serie A side likely wants to beat out the Red Devils for the promising manager. It will be interesting to see if he decides now is the right time to join a prominent European club and handle the pressures that come with the job.
