Juventus confirm Maurizio Sarri sack after elimination from the Champions League


Maurizio Sarri has been sacked as Juventus manager.

Multiple reports have indicated that the Old Lady have cut ties with the former Napoli boss, who joined the club as recently as a year ago after one season at Chelsea.

Italian football journalist Fabrizio Romano tweeted on Saturday afternoon: "BREAKING - Juventus has sacked Maurizio Sarri. Official statement soon. They'll go for a new manager."

The news comes mere hours after Juventus were eliminated from the Champions League against Lyon, winning the second leg 2-1 in Turin, but crashing out on the away-goal rule.

Juve had suffered defeat during the first game in France, held almost six months ago, before a Memphis Depay penalty left them with a mountain to climb early on at the Allianz Stadium.

Difficult 2019/20 season

Star man Cristiano Ronaldo almost bailed out his coach with a spectacular two-goal return, but it was ultimately insufficident to provide the European salvation that the club so desperately desries.

Sarri had led Juventus to their ninth consecutive Serie A title, though their late-season form was cause for concern and they won just two of their remaining eight fixtures.

That left them with a points tally of 83, their lowest since the 2011/12 campaign, with Lazio ultimately finishing just a single point behind them.

There was also disappointment in the cup as lost the Coppa Italia final on penalties against Napoli as well as the Suppercoppa Italia in a convincing 3-1 defeat to Lazio.

More to follow as we await official confirmation from the club.

THE MASCARENE PARROT

The Mascarene parrot was 35 cm (14 in) in length with a large red bill and long, rounded tail feathers. Its legs were red, and it had naked red skin around the eyes and nostrils. It had a black facial mask and partially white tail feathers, but the colouration of the body, wings and head is unclear. Descriptions from life indicate the body and head were ash grey, and the white part of the tail had two dark central feathers. In contrast, descriptions based on stuffed specimens state that the body was brown and the head bluish but do not mention the dark central tail feathers. This may be due to the specimens having changed colour as a result of aging and exposure to light, as well as other forms of damage. Very little is known about the bird in life. The Mascarene parrot was first mentioned in 1674, and live specimens were later brought to Europe, where they lived in captivity . The species was scientifically described in 1771. Only two stuffed specimens exist today, in Paris and Vienn...
