Juventus Turin has made Maurizio Sarri his priority. Chelsea has set two conditions to let his coach go to the Italian champion but still waiting to learn more about his ban on recruitment.
At the top of Europe with Chelsea, Maurizio Sarri has nevertheless taken a big step towards Juventus Turin. According to information from the Gazzetta dello Sport, the coach has moved considerably closer to the Italian champion in recent hours. Chief Executive Marina Granovskaia has agreed to leave Sarri but has submitted two conditions to definitively validate the transfer.
The first is logical since it still needs the approval of Roman Abramovich, the owner of the club. The second is economic. She asks for compensation of 6 M €, while the coach, arrived last year, has two more years of contract with the Blues. A not insignificant sum but that can align the Old Lady. Negotiations have already taken place as late as Thursday night in Baku in the final of League Europa, won by the English club against neighbor Arsenal (4-1).
Sarri awaits TAS decision while Chelsea wants to keep it
The president of the ECA but especially of the Juventus, Andrea Agnelli, was present at the stadium and was able to take advantage of it to talk with the leaders of Chelsea to advance the file. The exchanges were visibly fruitful. He returned to Italy with a little more certainty. The case is nevertheless complex because the English club is in the grip of some doubts, in particular against the prohibition of the FIFA to recruit during two mercatos.
This is the main reason that makes Maurizio Sarri hesitate to stay. Without the opportunity to buy new players and while Eden Hazard is going away, the 60-year-old technician is waiting for the CAS decision. At the same time, his agent Alessandro Pellegrini flew to London on Thursday to meet the decision makers of the Blues. They are more willing to keep their coach, especially since it is now installed and won a European Cup.
