Sport Mediaset claim Ferrero had a meeting with Sarri today, as Mihajlovic recommended him.
Sarri impressed everyone this season with his tactics and organised squad, securing safety after promotion from Serie B.
This included Samuel Eto’o, who said he was “honoured” to meet Sarri after their 1-1 draw on Sunday.
Walter Zenga remains a hot favourite for Sampdoria, while Fiorentina Coach Vincenzo Montella insisted he only met with Ferrero because of mutual friends.
“I didn’t know about a meeting with Sampdoria, but tomorrow I will see the Coach and ask him,” Empoli director of sport Marcello Carli told Tuttomercatoweb.
“He still has two years left on his contract and we’d be happy to keep him, especially as we defended him in difficult moments during the past.
“If he finds a better option, then we won’t stop him. The choice of where to train next season is exclusively his and does not depend on us.”
