Italian Post reacted strongly on Twitter Wednesday to a remark by Maurizio Sarri, the coach of Juventus, who had explained that if he had wanted to avoid the pressure, he would have chosen to work for the public company.

At a press conference on Wednesday, Sarri was asked about the mixed results of Juventus currently and the pressure associated with this situation.

"If I had not wanted to be under surveillance, I would have sent my CV to work at the Post Office. Everything is normal. We are in February and racing in all the competitions, in line with the objectives set this season", said the Italian technician.

La Poste "invites Mr. Sarri to spend a few minutes of his precious time discovering that La Poste is the largest company in the country, chosen by young graduates as one of the most attractive companies, recognized as one of the 500 world's first companies for quality of life at work, "replied the public company on Twitter.

The group also recalls that it "achieved one of the best performances on the stock market in 2019" and that it "ranks third in the world for Italian companies for image and reputation".

"Contrary to what Mr. Sarri claims, the pressure does exist at the Post Office, which is responsible to citizens, businesses and public administrations. We are waiting for it in one of our 15,000 centers so that he can see our daily work in person ", concludes Swiss Post.

Juventus host Brescia on Sunday during the 24th day of Serie A.
