According to Corriere dello Sport, the 60-year-old boss has been left unsettled by a recent incident involving Germany international Emre Can.
After being left out of Juventus' 25-man Uefa Champions League squad, the player publicly admitted his shock and anger at the decision, saying Sarri told him he was omitted over the phone in a conversation that lasted no longer than a minute.

Croatia striker Mario Mandzukic was also left out of the selection, but it has now been claimed that Sarri did not plan on having them in his team for the 2019/20 season at all.
The Italian boss is reportedly furious that sporting director Fabio Paratici was not able to sell the pair before the close of the European transfer window after he apparently made it clear he would not use them.
