Concrete offers? Still no. Talking about the future now makes no sense.”Allegri may have no offers as things stand, but that situation could shift quickly. It is understood that a high-profile post at Camp Nou would appeal to a man who has spent his entire coaching career to date in his homeland.No Italian has ever taken the reins at Barcelona, so history could be made. His philosophy of football would fit well in Catalunya, with the Blaugrana seeking to mix defensive solidity with attacking flair.Allegri has already worked with some of the biggest names in the business, such as Juve superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, so would have no problem taking charge of Lionel Messi and Co. For now there is no movement or approach to consider, but Valverde may be on borrowed time and Allegri could see a 12-month sabbatical cut short.</blockquote>
