The Old Lady were third on the Serie A standings, but have now dropped out of the title race and find themselves in 10th position.
Allegri, however, insists he will remain manager of the Turin-based outfit despite the points deduction.
"I'm the coach of Juventus and I will remain the coach of Juventus. Unless they send me away," Allegri said, as per Goal.
"In difficult times you have to be good, men, in taking responsibility. When things are going well, we are all good. I'm unable to analyze the severity of -15 in the table. The only thing certain is that one: we must accept yesterday's ruling.
"I repeat: the club, with the lawyers, have already made the official statement. We have to be silent, very low profile, and do this challenge starting from 22 points.
"We have to do our duty: the final judgment will come in 2 months. And we must not find ourselves in 2 months with regrets because we did not do as much as we should have done. All situations should be turned into an opportunity. "
This is an opportunity to have a season to the fullest, then we'll see how it goes. When the ruling came, I did the calculation of the points it would take to get the UEFA Champions League. The average is there and to get there you need something extraordinary".
Juventus have confirmed they will be appealing the ruling of the points deduction.
