Napoli boss Maurizio Sarri has reportedly agreed to sign a new Napoli contract amid interest from Chelsea.
According to II Mattino, Sarri will extend his contract until 2022 with all release clauses removed from the new deal.
Chelsea were said to be keen on bringing Sarri to Stamford Bridge this summer as he continues to impress with Napoli in Serie A.
Sarri’s current deal in Italy includes a £7 million release clause, a figure that Roman Abramovich was reportedly willing to pay.
The Napoli boss will meet with president Aurelio De Laurentiis to discuss the terms of the new deal and the manager has demanded a big summer of spending to keep him at the club.
