Maurizio Sarri has told Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich that he should sack him now if his job as head coach rests on next week’s Europa League final against Arsenal.

And Sarri has also confirmed that he would like to hold talks over his future after the Baku final, with Juventus keen to take him back to Italy and Roma also showing interest.

Chelsea will not make any decision on Sarri until after the Arsenal match, but will not stand in the 60-year-old’s way if he expresses a desire to return to his home country.

Sarri has 12 months, plus a year’s option, remaining on his contract which is worth £5million-a-year and Chelsea would demand that was paid up by Juventus or any other club that wants him.

Chelsea have qualified for the Champions League already after finishing third in the Premier League and also reached the Carabao Cup final. Asked if it would be fair for a decision on his future to be taken on the Europa League final, Sarri replied: “No, if the situation is like this I want to go immediately.
