Zola's agent :'Zola is out of #Chelsea negotiations, never talked to Chelsea about role in Sarri’s technical staff I can only say that the whole situation is very complicated. I've been reading Sarri to Chelsea is a done deal but as far as I know nothing is happening soon’ #CFC
From Calciomercato
Right now we are beeing linked with Sarri, Higuain, Kovacic etc. only to end up with Conte staying, Hazard out, Willian out and a couple of Djilobobalis to fill out the squad
Probably because he know we have been tapping Sarri up for some time while we have refused to pay Sarris 8 million release clause in some stupid attempt to save a few dollarez.
I would do the same tbh.
Yeah sure we do. But then we will only have half of our squad left. Why havent we started to bring new players in if we already have a coach? What is the hold up?
Or maybe tactic to put pressure on Napoli? Like "We are focused on Napoli since Sarri still under contract etc". If it will be a legal case it would not* benefit Sarri if his agent is flirting around with Chelsea and putting pressure on Napoli to release him. Now Napoli has to answer why they hire a new coach when they already have one.
Or am i just dreaming?
Edit: *
Italian media now reporting about us ditching Sarri aswell (because of his comments).
Guess Chelsea trying to prepare us fans for the appointment of Blanc or Grant
