This morning, reports suggested that Antonio Conte could leave Napoli and it has restarted a suggestion from last summer, one which AC Milan would ideally avoid.
It feels like it could be another big summer for the top Italian clubs. Inter seem pretty settled with Cristian Chivu, but then there are several suggestions about the rest. Milan are facing questions about Massimiliano Allegri, Napoli now have the Conte issue and even Juventus aren’t safe.

Indeed, it could create somewhat of a merry-go-round, too.
Allegri to replace Conte… again?
As Calciomercato.com relays from Gazzetta dello Sport this morning, Conte is set to leave Naples, even if they qualify for the Champions League next season. The relationship between him and Aurelio De Laurentiis has been up and down and it will now end.
Indeed, the coach is willing to walk away from his pretty large contract and there have been suggestions that he could head to Juventus.
Where the Rossoneri are involved, though, is that De Laurentiis could revisit last summer. Conte could have left the Partenopei last year and Allegri had almost agreed to head to replace him if he departed. However, the Diavolo got in there and confirmed a deal to bring him back to San Siro.
Considering the current issues, there is a chance that he could leave the club and head down south to fulfil last season’s possibility. He is one of the favourites for the job, if not the favourite.
Milan, imaginably, have the first say but if guarantees are not given, he could be heading to a Scudetto rival.
Just swap and we good
Bring Roberto Mancini
Watch Allegri win the Scudetto and finish higher in the champions league
Time to wake up.
Like he did at Juventus
My point exactly 💯
Juventus had a better team, as does Napoli now.
His last year in Juve was beautiful.
How, with his brand of football?
Allegri to Napoli or Italy, Conte to juventus,
Sarri to Milan. Four benches in the equation.
Why would Conte want to coach a Serie B team?
What the f are you talking about?
Conte literally had a come and get me appearance in our stadium when we knew we were looking for a coach the season before. And we still didn’t bite lol. Napoli ended up with the Scudetto and we ended up 8th.
Conte seems destined to want to have coaching Milan on his resume. Worth a shot for about two season. We’ll make UCL. For sure. We’ll do badly in UCL but hey at least we’ll make it
“We’ll do badly in UCL but hey at least we’ll make it”
We’ll do badly in UCL with Allegri too if he even can get us there.
Allegri go go go go please and destroy Napoli with your garbage formation. He almost destroyed the career of Leao with his centre forward position. Has Leao ever played as a centre forward for Milan when we had 4 strikers before? No let him go please
Right! You have to feel for all the strikers how is any one of them suppose to succeed in the formation. Almost all of our goals were individual greatness on the part of the players rather than a success on the part of formation or tactics. Please leave Allegri!
