TURIN – Serie A club Juventus fired manager Maurizio Sarri after a season at the helm following the dismissal of the Champions League team in the eighth round on Friday, the Turin club announced in a statement.
The 61-year-old was fired after taking Juventus to Serie A titles two weeks ago, his ninth in a row.
“Juventus Football Club announces that Maurizio Sarri has been no longer no longer coach,” the club said on its website.
“The club wants to thank the coach for writing a new page in Juventus history with the victory of the ninth consecutive league, the culmination of an adventure that led him to climb all the divisions of Italian football,” he added.
Sarri has been tense since wasting the consequences on Napoli in the Coppa Italia final in June.

Juventus have dominated the Serie A so much over the past decade that winning the national league is considered almost an obligation, while the Champions League, which the team has not won since 1996, is considered its main goal.
