Napoli patron De Laurentiis: I want Sarri to win NOTHING

Napoli patron Aurelio De Laurentiis has wished Maurizio Sarri the WORST in his new job at Juventus.

De Laurentiis admits there's little love lost between the pair.

“Maurizio's a good Coach, I saw a lot of him," he told Corriere dall Sera.

“I'm not surprised, football is no longer about icons. He didn't win anything here and he may not even win in Turin. He's a rival and I can only wish him that [he doesn't win].

“I'm all for freedom, therefore I respect his choice. People can do whatever they like, but they must take responsibility.

“I never believed in Sarri's absolute love for Napoli, and time has proved me right. I often reiterate that I'm all for monogamy, I believe in marriage and I've been at Napoli for 15 years, although a section of our fans have tried to get in my way.

“Arguments can happen, but the important thing is to remain faithful to the cause and for the love of our colours. Mine was a choice from my heart, and it remains so."
