Former Juventus coach Marcello Lippi has welcomed the appointment of Maurizio Sarri.

Lippi admits he's a fan of Sarriball.

He told Tuttosport: "I think that the basis for it was above all the desire to change philosophy at Juve and give new motivation to everyone after eight consecutive Serie A titles.

“Sarri is a Coach who gets his teams playing good quality football. It's one of the most complicated things, to play one or two touch football, but he does it splendidly.

“Now that's no longer enough, he also has to win. I believe he'll do very well at Juve, but one can never take victory for granted."
