Conte set to leave Napoli after Serie A title win | OneFootball

Antonio Conte could be on his way out of Napoli, despite leading them to the Serie A title.

Journalist Gianluca Di Marzio will leave his post at the end of the campaign.

Discussions between the club and Conte are set to take place soon, but the current feeling is that an exit is very likely.

This decision is not being driven by arguments or transfer disagreements. It is expected to be a peaceful split between both sides.

There is a growing belief inside the club that Conte’s time is drawing to a close, despite the successful campaign.

Napoli are expected to visit the Pope in the coming days, which may serve as one of Conte’s final public acts as manager.

A meeting will be held after the visit, during which both parties will evaluate the situation and finalise a decision.

Napoli look to Allegri as Conte’s replacement

Massimiliano Allegri has emerged as the top target to take over in the dugout ahead of next season.

The club are keen to move fast to secure Allegri’s appointment after the Champions League final.

Napoli are also wary of interest from Inter Milan and AC Milan, who have been linked with Allegeri.

Conte took charge of Napoli last June, signing a three-year deal to build long-term success.

Under his leadership, the team claimed their first title since 2023. It was Conte’s fifth Serie A title as a manager, having previously succeeded with Juventus and Inter.

He became the first coach in Italian football history to win the title with three different clubs.

Despite that historic feat, Conte appears to be preparing for a new chapter away from Napoli.
