JAKARTA - Andrea Pirlo is still trying to save what's left of this season by leading Juventus to qualify for the Champions League and possibly also winning the Coppa Italia. However, his position for next season remains in doubt.

Several names began to emerge as potential replacements for Pirlo. A report from Germany then named a somewhat unlikely candidate.

According to Bild (via ilBianconero), Juventus are considering Bayern Munich manager Hansi Flick for the hot seat. The German tactician will leave the Bundesliga champions at the end of the season.

Flick led the Bavarians to glory last season by winning the Champions League trophy and the Club World Cup in Qatar earlier this year. However, they were knocked out of the CL quarter-finals at the hands of Paris Saint Germain earlier this month.

The 56-year-old was Joachim Low's longtime assistant in the German national team between 2008 and 2014. He is expected to replace the 2014 World Cup winner after Euro 2020 which will be held this summer.

Having said that, the news linking Flick to Juventus seems highly unlikely, despite the mention of a well-known German news source.

In all cases, the Bianconeri must first focus on finishing the season in the best possible way before drawing up plans for next season. The reason is, losing the Champions League will have a disastrous effect on a sporting and economic level.
