JAKARTA - Lazio coach Maurizio Sarri says Napoli striker Lorenzo Insigne is Italy's best player in recent years and Jorginho could be a candidate for the Ballon d'Or.
Speaking in an interview with Italian broadcaster Sportitalia (via LazioNews24) on Monday night, the 62-year-old Italy coach first spoke about Chelsea and Azzurri midfielder Jorginho.
"We are talking about a subtle player who obviously cannot be understood by everyone. He is very intelligent and good tactically so he makes things easy," Sarri said of his former squad at Napoli and Chelsea.
If Italy wins the European Championship, continued the designer, Jorginho could be one of the candidates for the Ballon d'Or.
He revealed, the Italian midfielder was close to signing a contract with Pep Guardiola's Manchester City.
But, thanks to the Blues' mediator, Sarri managed to bring him to London. After a period of adaptation, he won everyone over.
"He deserves it," Sarri continued.
The former Napoli coach then recalled his two former players, Lorenzo Insigne and Jose Callejon.
"Lorenzo Insigne is the strongest Italian player in recent years. Callejon is someone who provides a lot of balance and from that point of view he is very fundamental," said Sarri.
