Maurizio Sarri is undoubtedly a great coach.  In his career, he has trained and improved many players.  One of them is Raul Albiol.  Raul Albiol leads the Villarreal defense today, in the past with Kalidou Koulibaly he formed a good combination of Maurizio Sarri's defense line at Napoli.  

The Spaniard in an interview with El Pais praised the current Lazio coach, also making a comparison with Carlo Ancelotti:

"I made the qualitative leap with Sarri at Napoli. It was three years of constant learning. In defense he was one of the specialists, he helped me to grow and improve."

"The off the ball position was fundamental for him. We tried everything that could be tried. He showed me a lot of things I didn't see. It was a turning point, A big leap."

"Ancelotti was impressive. A wonderful experience. I understood how to manage a great team. He gave me security and confidence. He played more on the counterattack than Sarri. In the Champions League, above all, he got the best from us."
