Juventus striker Alvaro Morata was told to ‘shut up’ by his boss Massimiliano Allegri in a furious touchline row during the 2-0 win over Genoa.
In the 72nd minute Morata was penalised for a handball in Genoa’s area and he was aggrieved, opting to unleash some choice words in the direction of the referee and Genoa defender Davide Biraschi.
He was booked and immediately Allegri called him over to the bench to be substituted in place of Moise Kean.
Morata, who has scored in only one of his last 11 Serie A games, exploded when Allegri attempted to embrace him.
The pair began to argue in full public view before Morata was banished to the bench.
Pitchside microphones inside the Allianz stadium caught Allegri saying to Morata: ‘You gave away a foul, you have to shut up!’
The Spanish striker responded furiously, firing back: ‘What have I done?!’ To compound Morata’s frustrations, his replacement, Kean, was booked within 60 seconds of coming on for taking out Biraschi.
Morata is enduring a miserable spell back in Turin and his relationship with the fans is already strained.
