Paulo Dybala Hugs Ex-Coach Maurizio Sarri Despite Booing From Juventus Fans

Juventus fans booed their ex-coach Maurizio Sarri, but Paulo Dybala hugged the Lazio tactician before the kick-off at the Allianz Stadium.

Dybala will leave the club at the end of his contract in June and both he and Giorgio Chiellini are playing their last match in Turin tonight. Sarri was the last coach to win the Scudetto at the club but didn’t receive a warm welcome from his ex supporters, who booed him when lineups were announced before the beginning of the match.

However, a few minutes later, Dybala greeted the 63-year-old, running toward Lazio’s bench and embracing his former boss. Dybala scored 17 goals and delivered 14 assists in 46 appearances under Sarri at Juventus, becoming the Serie A’s MVP for 2019-20.

Juventus won their ninth Scudetto under Sarri but the former Napoli and Chelsea coach was sacked at the end of the season following the elimination in the Champions League Round of 16 at the hands of Porto.
