De Laurentiis tries to change the rules of engagement a bit. If one of the problems that he must overcome to convince Conte to accept a bench that is currently in disaster is that of salary, here he tries to challenge it. The strategy, writes Il Messaggero reported by Calcio e Finanza, is that of bonuses. That is to say: normal salary, but very rich bonuses linked to results. In short: come, win and you will earn what you ask for.
Conte, De Laurentiis is thinking of bonuses to incentivize him
“The home defeat against Bologna, which leads Napoli to have qualification in the Conference League as their highest objective, led De Laurentiis to break the deadlock and try everything to bring the Salento coach back to Serie A. The contacts have started again after weeks of mutual reflections, which had brought Stefano Pioli’s candidacy into pole position, given his imminent divorce from Milan. But, as mentioned, the situation in Naples requires a decisive intervention towards a name that can shake up the environment and also bring back the great enthusiasm in the square that celebrated the scudetto a year ago.”
“But the negotiation to bring Conte to Napoli will certainly not be easy. First of all there is an agreement on the salary to be reached. But here De Laurentiis is ready to make an effort, especially when it comes to goal bonuses which promise to be very rich for the former Juventus and Inter coach. An important incentive to push Conte to accept yet another great challenge in his career as a coach, with the aim of opening a winning cycle in Naples too.”
