Maurizio Sarri closing in on Chelsea exit – agrees personal terms with European giants

Maurizio Sarri agrees terms with Juventus

Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri is closing in on exit after agreeing to terms with Serie A outfit Juventus, according to the Sun.

The former Napoli manager has been heavily linked with a move to Bianconeri since the departure of Massimiliano Allegri.

The 60-year-old led the Blues to Europa League glory in his first ever stint in England amidst the disapproval from the fans because of his tactics and lack of mutual understanding with the players.

Under the Italian’s reign, the Londoners have won 39 games and lost 12 with a success percentage of around 61. Ex-Blues player Frank Lampard has been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge to replace Sarri.

Lampard has fared well in his first ever managerial stint with Derby county, leading them to the play-offs final.

It would be a shocker to let go of Sarri after what he managed with a squad that did not have a pre-season with the manager. Nevertheless, the chopping and changing of managers at Chelsea Football Club is nothing new and as long as Abramovich chooses the right man to succeed Sarri, the team should do fine.
