Juventus FC have sacked Maurizio Sarri as manager after just one season.
Sarri had guided Juventus to a ninth straight Serie A title but were knocked out of the Champions League by Lyon at the last-16 stage.
Juventus had beaten Lyon 2-1 in Turin yesterday but the French side progressed on the away goals rule.
Italian Sarri, 61, was appointed by Juventus on a three year contract last summer from Chelsea where he had also spent just one year.
