[B-right-on]

Chelsea have agreed a deal in principle for their manager Maurizio Sarri to join Serie A champions Juventus.

"An agreement was reached late on Thursday evening after talks between senior officials. A deal could be completed as early as Friday.

It is understood a compensation fee in excess of £5m has been agreed."

Good luck to him. He was treated appallingly by the media and a portion of Chelsea fans, I hope he does well there.

Agree, hope he can get back to enjoying football with a bit more pleasure and respect. Nobody’s perfect, but the hounding he got wasn’t right. Third place (behind two teams who really were outstanding last year) and a thumping Europa Cup title, yet most Chelsea fans and commentators spent the whole season agitating for him to go.

I’ve got a feeling one of the top 6 will end up outside the top 10 next season, would love it to be Chelsea. With Hazard and Sarri leaving and no new players coming in I think it’s on the cards.

Hope so, you’d have to think that Roman has lost interest or his marbles if it happens though

Sarri leaving must have surprised absolutely no one.

Word is its Lampards

Brilliant move for him and Juventus. He was always too good for Chelsea.

Chelsea fans getting what they want now. A manager with one year’s experience finishing 6th in the Championship with one of the best squads in the league.

At least I can go back to enjoying every Chelsea defeat now, was conflicting with the brilliant Sarri there.

Ridiculous if true. As long as they don't start eyeing up Potter all will be peachy.

This and they had the cheek to try and get him to stay.

I think that might happen too but I’d say outside top 6, Chelsea or Man Utd IMO. If Emery has a bad start at Arsenal he’ll be the next hounded out.

I’d be very surprised if Chelsea aren’t interested in the chap at Wolves.

I have a friend who has close links to the club and he sent a tweet about Lampard so may well be some truth in it

Daft - and I hope they do it.

Also opens up the prospect of Hughton taking over at Derby.
