According to information from the British press, Chelsea's board of directors has considered coach Sarri for the position of captain of the team. Too impressed with what coach Sarri has done for Napoli during the past time, the leaders of Stamford Bridge immediately considered the strategist born in 1959 as the most serious candidate for the hot seat of Chelsea.

It is not known whether The Blue will be able to successfully convince coach Sarri or not? But it seems that this is a very wise decision by owner Abramovich and his associates. It cannot be denied that coach Sarri is a talented strategist. Napoli's achievements in the last 3 seasons are clear proof.

Since arriving at San Paolo (summer 2015), the Italian strategist has built a strong and attractive Napoli. In the 2015/2016 season, Napoli finished 2nd in Serie A (behind Juventus). Last season, the San Paolo team won 3rd place overall (behind Juventus, AS Roma).

Entering the 2017/2018 season, although not invested as much as AC Milan, Inter Milan, Juventus... but Napoli played explosively. Coach Sarri and his team led Serie A for quite a long time before being surpassed by Juventus in round 28 (March 12, 2018). Currently, the San Paolo home team is ranked 2nd with 77 points, 4 points behind the leading team Juventus.

In addition to stability, coach Sarri also "molded" Napoli into a team with an extremely attractive playing style. Coach Pep Guardiola himself once commented: "Napoli are truly excellent. They are one of the strongest teams I have ever faced in my career as a player and coach, there is no doubt about that, even the strongest"!

Coach Capello did not hesitate to praise his younger colleague: "Every 20 years there is an innovation in football. After Ajax came Milan of Arrigo Sacchi and Barcelona of Pep Guardiola. And now we are lucky to have Sarri, who has awakened football once again."

So, it can be seen that Sarri is the type of coach Chelsea needs. He is Italian so he can easily reap success with Chelsea - where there have been 4 strategists from the "land of pasta" who have worked in the past 20 years (Ranieri, Ancelotti, Di Matteo, Conte). Just looking at Napoli's playing style under coach Sarri, owner Abramovich is already very satisfied.

If Chelsea is serious, the chance to win Sarri's signature is quite high. After all, Napoli and Serie A cannot compare with Chelsea and the Premier League. There is no reason for the 59-year-old strategist to refuse the invitation from Stamford Bridge.
