Juve renounces the option: a penalty of 2.5 million and Sarri is free. Lazio gets under way

The Juventus club does not activate the third year of the contract: the faculty expires at midnight. The biancoceleste ds Tare would have already met the Tuscan coach in the afternoon. Soon the decisive acceleration?

Juventus will not make use of the option for Maurizio Sarri’s third year of contract, which expires at midnight. The former Juventus coach will receive the 2.5 million penalty and will be free to sign elsewhere.

The club chaired by Andrea Agnelli opted for this solution to minimize the impact on the budget: the alternative would have been to activate the option, risking having to pay the entire annual salary (double the penalty, 5 million net ) in the event that Sarri has not decided to terminate the contract.

Lazio, to all

To take advantage of this is Lazio which is making progress in the Sarri operation. The Tuscan coach is now the main target for the post Inzaghi. And this afternoon the biancoceleste ds, Igli Tare, would have gone to the former Juventus coach, in his Tuscan home, in Castelfranco, for a first technical summit. To lay the foundations for Lazio for next season. After several telephone contacts, here is the transition to a decidedly operational phase, which underlines Sarri’s desire to embrace the Lazio project. His last, strictly contractual, obligation expires at midnight due to the agreement signed two years ago with Juventus. With Tare, the Tuscan technician is evaluating the current staff to adapt to his tactical needs. To smooth out the last gap on the engagement (about one million between supply and demand) in a three-year contract, president Claudio Lotito will take the field, increasingly fascinated by the prospect of seeing Sarri on the Lazio bench.
