Sarri: 'Only positive start was with Chelsea, not good memories of Juventus'
In comments reported by Football Italia, Maurizio Sarri reflected on the starts to his tenures at major clubs, singling out Chelsea as the only place where the beginning truly went well. He contrasted that with his time at Juventus, which he described in unsparing terms, saying the memories are not fond. The remarks offer a candid window into how the Italian coach evaluates two of the most high-profile jobs of his career and come as he continues his current role with Lazio in Serie A.

It underlines how the Stamford Bridge project — where his 'Sarriball' earned an enduring fan following despite a turbulent single season — still stands apart in his own memory. His distance from the Juventus chapter, by contrast, hints at lingering frustration over how that title-winning but stylistically awkward year was received. For followers of Italian football, the comments reinforce the narrative that Sarri's best football has rarely aligned with the most decorated clubs he has led.
