Sarri's father: 'Even he doesn't know'

By Football Italia staff

Maurizio Sarri’s father said the Chelsea Coach can’t sign for Juventus because “they haven’t released him yet and even he doesn’t know when it’ll happen.”

Tuscan YouTuber Giacomo Carolei visited Sarri’s hometown of Figline Valdarno, on the outskirts of Florence, to ask the locals if there were any updates on the situation.

He ended up being pointed towards the tactician’s father Amerigo, who was just returning home.

When asked if Sarri had signed for Juventus yet, the response was: “They haven’t released him yet. Even he doesn’t know when it’ll happen.”

The father was asked if he hoped Maurizio would move to Juventus.

“I hope he returns to Italy.”

Sarri has said one of the reasons for his desire to come back to Serie A is to be closer to his parents.

Talks have been going on for weeks now to release Sarri from his Chelsea contract, but every time there are multiple reports of a breakthrough and imminent announcement, something seems to cause a delay.
