Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri has refused to bite back at Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis.

De Laurentiis has accused of "massacring" his players last season as their title push collapsed.

After victory against Perth Glory, Sarri stated: “I think Chelsea have very good players and I have to thank the ones who play for Napoli because if I'm here, maybe it's thanks to them.

“De Laurentiis said I wanted to dismantle Napoli? I'm happy with the players I have.

"I don't want to answer De Laurentiis any more."
