Maurizio Sarri savours his first trophy success in charge of the Blues
Despite finishing third in the Premier League and appearing in two cup finals, winning one, the former Napoli boss has faced considerable criticism this season.
There has been plenty of speculation over his Chelsea future in recent months and the 60-year-old is being tipped to succeed departing manager Massimiliano Allegri at Juventus next term.
However, after victory in Baku, Sarri, who took charge last July, feels he should be allowed to continue his role at Stamford Bridge.
“I need to talk to the club and make sure I know what I can do for Chelsea and what Chelsea can do for me,” said Sarri.
