Sarri has won the Europa League and Serie A since he left Napoli and as the pressure increases on Partenopei coach Gennaro Gattuso, his former President reveals he seems to have the energy for a return to the dugout.

“I spoke to him a couple of times, but we mostly spoke about some youth players,” he told Radio Punto Nuovo. “I found him with some energy.

“I told him to prepare to return. But if he will return to Napoli? I don’t know.

“I like Gattuso as much as Sarri, even though I had a good relationship with Sarri.

“I like Gattuso a lot as a person. He has values and exposes them and communicates them well.”
