Maurizio Sarri Laughs off Suggestions about Napoli Exit

Napoli manager Maurizio Sarri has dismissed suggestions that he is about to leave the Italian club.


The team that finished third in the league table last season has made a stunning start to the current campaign after managing to possess the only 100% record so far this season. Napoli have made incredible progress under the regime of Sarri and this has not gone unnoticed at various clubs. He has been regarded as one of the greatest tacticians that Italian football has at the moment. However, he has been able to bring in an exciting style of football at Napoli.

The combination of existing football, strong tactics, and successful results have madeSarri one of the sought-after managers. There has been a lot of speculation linkingSarri with foreign jobs, but the prospect of enticing him from Napoli appears to be difficult at the moment. Apart from being able to challenge for the title, Napoli also offer Champions League football to the manager and the expression that comes along with it.

He still has two years left on his contract, but there is a chance of interested clubs like West Ham triggering a clause of £ 7.5 million. There has been a lot of speculation surrounding current West Ham manager Slaven Bilic, who has had a disastrous start to the 2017-18 season.

Sarri has emerged as one of the potential contenders, but he has laughed off rumours that he may be set for an exit from Napoli in the next few months.“Well if he finds me the right team [laughing]...This is based on some of his personal ideas.I am fully focused on Napoli. To play in the UCL is a huge satisfaction for me. Let's think one game at the time,” said the Napoli manager when asked about the rumours surrounding his future at Napoli.
