Sarri eyeing triple Napoli swoop if he lands Chelsea role

If Chelsea appoint Maurizio Sarri, he will want the club to pay the release clauses for three Napoli players, reports Football Italia.

Sarri met with Chelsea officials yesterday and after a seven-hour meeting, is expected to take over on a two-year deal.

He will undoubtedly be interested in a number of players from his former club, and he wants to start by signing those with release clauses.

Raul Albiol, Elseid Hysaj and Piotr Zielinski are the players he wants to bring to Stamford Bridge so he has a core group of players that he knows.

All three played key roles for Napoli this season, Albiol made the least appearances out of the three and even he played 34 games.

The 32-year-old centre-back has been an ever-present for the Italian side for the past five years and Sarri wants him to do the same at the Blues.

Hysaj and Zielinski are both in demand. They have been linked with numerous top European clubs but Sarri moving to Chelsea could sway their decisions should other sides try and challenge them for their signatures.
