Maurizio Sarri is the new coach of
Juventus after leaving Chelsea to sign a three-year contract
with the Serie A champions at the weekend.
The 60-year-old, who led Chelsea to victory in the Europa
League and a third-placed finish in the English top flight last
season, has a tough act to follow.
He replaces Massimiliano Allegri who left after five straight
scudetti but failing to win the Champions League.
The Turin giants will be hoping that Sarri's attacking brand
of football will enable them to reach the next level in Europe.
Before Allegri, Juve won three straight Serie A titles under
new Inter coach Antonio Conte.
Sarri's appointment as Juve head coach has not gone down well
with followers of his former club Napoli, many of whom consider
the move to their arch rivals as a sort of betrayal.
