For months the name of Antonio Conte is at the center of various market hypotheses and soon it will be time for the former national team coach to embark on a new adventure. The options for the Salento coach are different, from the suggestion of Bayern Munich as Tuchel’s heir, to a return to the Premier League. However, a new challenge in Italy is not excluded.
The point on Antonio Conte
In Serie A the team that mostù is pushing to have Conte is the Naples. Aurelio De Laurentiis considers it the first choice for next season but faces several obstacles that could complicate the issue. There would be a three-year contract worth around 6.5 million euros on the table. Conte’s requests, both on an economic and technical project level, may not, however, meet the possibilities of the Neapolitan club. We cannot, therefore, exclude other names, already explored by the Italian management. From Vincenzo Italian to Stefano Pegs (both towards farewell at the end of the season).
Milan teases Conte
The dream of the blue patron, however, remains Conte who however he is also attracted to Milan, club where he never coached. It would be a return, from the other side of Milan, after two years at the helm of Inter. In view of a now almost inevitable closure of Pioli’s cycle in the Rossoneri, it is not excluded that Gerry Cardinale could turn to Conte himself. The corporate situation at Milan, however, is rather chaotic. The presence of Furlani and Moncada was enriched by that of Ibrahimovic and for this reason a sort of power “struggle” could arise.
To date, however, the Naples track is more of a suggestion than a concrete possibility. Conte is used to having competitive squads to win the title and De Laurentiis would hardly be able to guarantee it to him. Osimhen will almost certainly leave in the summer, Zielinski has already signed with Inter and Kvaratskhelia’s stay is not a given either. Consequently, the Azzurri’s market will be one of re-foundation and it will not be easy to find players worthy of those who won the Serie A title just a year ago. For this reason, and also for purely economic reasons, Conte’s market could remain only a great suggestion.
