Antonio Conte has announced he will leave Napoli this summer, 12 months after guiding the club to the Serie A title.
The former Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur boss took charge of Napoli in 2024 and in his first season, delivered a fourth top-flight title in their history.
However, this season Napoli finished second, 11 points behind champions Inter Milan.
His exit comes shortly after Napoli’s 1-0 win over Udinese on the final day of Serie A, bringing an end to the campaign and Conte’s spell in charge.
Speaking after the match, the Italian was open about his decision, explaining that he felt the project had reached its natural conclusion.
“A month ago, I called the president asking for nothing, and he didn’t tell me anything either. I told him I felt our project was coming to an end and that there had been no change in plans,” Conte said.
“I made this decision because I failed at one thing in Naples: I couldn’t bring unity to the environment, and it’s difficult to compete without that.”
When asked if he could become the new manager of the Italian national team, Conte said: “My advice would be to hire Pep Guardiola.”
During his time at Napoli, he delivered two trophies – the Serie A title and the Supercoppa Italiana – and ended his spell with 52 wins from 91 matches.
