Former Chelsea and Tottenham manager, Antonio Conte, has made headlines by revealing that he turned down a lucrative offer from a Saudi Pro League club. The 54-year-old tactician expressed his desire to manage either AS Roma or Napoli in the future, indicating a clear direction for his career.
Conte, known for his successful stints at Chelsea and Juventus, disclosed his regret over leaving Juventus after just three seasons.
In an interview with Belve, Conte stated, “I’ve rejected a huge proposal from Saudi — I decided to say no. I regretted leaving Juventus after just three years. I’d like to try an experience in Roma or Napoli one day, but I usually prefer to join at the end of the season.”
With his recent departure from the Tottenham job in March, Conte is currently in a state of anticipation, awaiting the right managerial offer. Amidst speculations, Napoli emerges as a potential destination, with reports suggesting the Serie A champions are considering him as a replacement for Rudi Garcia.
As the football world watches Conte’s next move closely, Serie A enthusiasts brace themselves for a potential managerial shake-up, with matches involving Napoli and Roma capturing heightened attention in the coming weeks.
