The countdown has officially started. TO Naples the wait is all for the announcement of Antonio Conte as the next coach of the Azzurri, a strong choice by president Aurelio De Laurentiis who has every intention of relaunching his team’s ambitions after the flop of this complicated season.
After having persistently and unsuccessfully negotiated Gian Piero Gasperini, who remained at Atalanta despite the courtships, ADL chose to close for the former Inter and Juventus player, taking one of the top players still free in the role. In the last few hours the lawyers of the two parties have been working to discuss the last facets of a complex contract and define the very last details, but the white smoke is really very close.
The details of the agreement
The Salento coach and Napoli are agreeing on a contract that will last three years, therefore until June 2027. The Italian champion coach first with Juventus and then with Inter will have a job as a top manager, for around 6 million euros net per season plus the usual bonuses linked to the team’s performance, specifically to the Champions League placement and obviously to winning the Scudetto. There will not be, unlike what has been announced in recent hours, the famous release clause to free himself at the end of the season.
