Juve boss sets his side Champions League target
Juventus coach Alberto Zaccheroni is focused on securing Champions League qualification for next season, but insists he will not be able to reap the rewards.
Zaccheroni replaced former coach Ciro Ferrara last month, but is resigned to leaving the post at the end of the current campaign - even if he achieves his goal.
The Turin club are currently sixth in Serie A and just one point behind Napoli, who hold the last Champions League spot and Zaccheroni reckons his side can qualify.
"I have been given one task and that is to make sure this team reaches the Champions League," he said. "It doesn't matter if we finish third or fourth.
"The possibility of being confirmed as manager for next season? It's zero. My contract ends on June 30.
"The club was very clear and when things are like that, there are no problems.
"But I will behave as though I will remain here for 20 more years. The players treat me as though I am the one that will decide at the end of the season who stays and who goes."
Juve take on Ajax in Amsterdam in the last 32 of the Europa League on Thursday before travelling to Bologna on Sunday.
