Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri DENIES that Leonardo Bonucci will move on in January

Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri has denied that club captain Leonardo Bonucci will move on in the January transfer window.

The Italian defender, 35, has made just seven starts in all competitions so far this season and has fallen out of favour under Allegri.

Reports broke earlier this week that the veteran was keen to leave the club due to his poor relationship with the Juventus boss.

Eyebrows had been raised when Bonucci was benched during Serie A games against Torino and Monza.
