Napoli are still considering the prospect of signing Antonio Conte this summer and will make another attempt to convince him. The Partenopei have already been linked with a number of coaches following a dismal season that has seen them already change managers three times.
La Gazzetta dello Sport report that while Conte has previously turned down Napoli and appeared content with his sabbatical this season, there has been ongoing communication between Napoli President Aurelio de Laurentiis and Conte over the past few months. These discussions have ranged from casual friendship to serious discussions about potentially leading Napoli.
The relationship between the two has been strong for some time, paving the way for an anticipated approach from Napoli. De Laurentiis is convinced that Conte’s leadership is the key to reigniting enthusiasm among both the squad and the fans. There is a belief that Conte’s arrival would immediately position Napoli as strong contenders for the Scudetto once again.
The expectation is that Napoli will have significant financial resources available in the upcoming transfer window. This financial strength will not only be crucial in convincing Conte to join but also in securing the players he desires. De Laurentiis is reportedly willing to offer Conte carte blanche when it comes to player signings, underscoring the club’s determination to make a significant impact in the transfer market.
