NO MAUR WAITING

- BY NEIL McLEMAN

CHELSEA have agreed a £4.4million price to buy Maurizio Sarri out of his Napoli deal, reports in Italy claimed last night.

Sarri was replaced by Carlo Ancelotti last month, but remained under contract with the Serie A club.

He had a £7m buyout clause in his contract which expired on May 31 and Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis said he would hold him to the final two years of his deal. But Sarri (left) has now been cleared to sign a £5m a season threeyear Chelsea contract, with current Blues boss Antonio Conte still to finalise a pay-off.
