Some of the others who were there will challenge Allegri in the next Serie A season, such as Cesc Fabregas and Fabio Pisacane. Also in the class were the new Empoli coach, Guido Pagliuca, and the former Napoli midfielder, Marek Hamsik.
“I didn’t come to teach something but to tell you about my professional experiences,” the new Milan coach began, addressing the audience of students. He added: “You have to be good at making the players express themselves to the best of their ability.”
Allegri is one of the most decorated coaches to officially graduate from the Technical Sector with five ‘Golden Benches’ (Coach of the Year award) in his personal honours board (four in Serie A and one in Serie C).
The coaching course, ‘Master’ UEFA Pro represents the highest level of training for a coach and the consequent qualification: it allows you to lead all teams in any competition. This currently underway is the penultimate week of lessons.
