"This week, a two-year agreement was formalised with the coach as part of careful planning for the future of our team," read the statement.
Interestingly, the latter part refers to recent reports that the coach had been approached as a possible replacement for Milan boss Carlo Ancelotti.
"Cagliari Calcio is flattered and proud by the attention given to our coach by a large club, but confirms that Allegri will remain on the Rossoblu bench until 2011."
After losing their opening five matches of the season, the island side opted to stick with Allegri and the move paid huge dividends, as the minnows now sit in seventh place in the Serie A standings.
