The former Chelsea manager believes the scheduling reflects poor planning from Serie A authorities and has openly questioned the logic behind the early start.
"The sensation is that Monday I'm coming, Sunday at 12:30 I'm not coming: at that time, they can play themselves," Sarri told Mediaset.
"The chaos comes from a series of errors made by the League. The Prefect was clear, let's hope that is the date. If I were the president, I wouldn't even present the team. We will take a one-point penalty; for us, it changes nothing at this point."
