Maurizio Sarri: Chelsea want Maurizio Sarri to continue the managerial duty with the Blues amid links of joining Juventus this summer.
Maurizio Sarri is under a doubt, whether he will stay at Chelsea or not, even though he managed to get a 3rd spot finish and a Europa league final in his debut season with the Blues.
It was earlier reported that Chelsea are planning to sack the Italian manager and would replace him with Frank Lampard, who has gained popularity as a manager after a dynamic season with Derby.
On the other hand, various reports also suggested that Sarri will move back to Serie A while strongly being linked to Juventus, especially after the departure of Massimiliano Allegri from the Old lady club.
However, in further advancements, SkySports has suggested that Chelsea want to stick with Sarri for the following season, while shattering all the speculations.
It is further said that Chelsea expect their head coach to report back for pre-season training at the end of their summer break.
It seems, the club administration considered all the aspects of the situation and preferred to keep their manager, since the Italian manager has given significantly better achievements to the club in his first season, while comparing recent record of the Blues.
Sarri has two years left in his contract with Chelsea and it would be hard for any other club to hire his services as the Blues are allegedly adamant to stay with Italian at the dugout.
Therefore, this news certainly limits the options for Juventus, who are seeking for a suitable replacements after sacking Allegri last week.

Chelsea spent the entire last summer trying to get Maurizio Sarri. He joined Chelsea on July 14, 2018 and he only had 8 days of pre-season training with his squad and yet he completed all the objectives that were given to him and now they're sacking him for no f**king reason!! pic.twitter.com/uLXQVh0l2I

I’m on record saying Sarri deserves to stay, but it’s funny, SO many fans are saying it’s too early to hire (their top choice), Frank Lampard, and bashing Chelsea that it’s even a rumor, that we are ALREADY not welcoming our next (potential) manager.
This fanbase, lol.

So if i defend Sarri for finishing third, getting to two finals and ultimately achieving his goals for the season does that make me a cultist?

What’s next?
Chelsea will compete against Arsenal in the All-English Europa league finale on Wednesday in Baku. The Blues would be without N’Golo Kante and Ruben Loftus-Cheek but the club would be hoping to win the tie, in order to secure a silverware this season.
