Antonio Conte Reveals He Would Love to Take Charge of Napoli and Roma

Antonio Conte has already managed eight clubs and his country, but says he would love to take charge of both Napoli and Roma and add them to his CV in the future.

The 54-year-old left Tottenham in March this year after a tumultuous time in charge of the club and is yet to take up a new role in management.

Having won titles with Juventus, Chelsea and Inter Milan, Conte does not feel finished at all at the top level and has two big clubs in his sights.

Conte’s Passion for Napoli and Roma

The former Juve midfielder likes the look of the Napoli and Roma jobs, impressed by the passion and atmosphere on show from their fans.

However, he says he has no intention of joining them or any club in the middle of the season, only intending to take his next job over a summer break.

“Certainly Napoli and Roma are two places that I would like to experience for the passion they convey to you,” Conte told Italian TV show Belve.

“I hope that someday there will be the possibility of having this experience. But I wouldn’t join a team mid-season because those are situations where the team is created before your arrival.”

Rejecting a Lucrative Offer from Saudi

Conte revealed he has already had a lucrative offer to return to management since Spurs, but he has rejected an approach from the Saudi Pro League.

“I’ve rejected a huge proposal from Saudi. I decided to say no,” he said.

Conte’s Future in Management

Conte is one of the most successful managers of his generation, having won three Serie A titles with Juventus, three Premier League titles with Chelsea and one Serie A title with Inter Milan.

He also led Italy to the quarter-finals of Euro 2016, where they were knocked out on penalties by Germany. With such an impressive CV, it is no surprise that Conte is in demand.

However, he is not in a rush to get back into management and will wait for the right opportunity to come along before making his return.

Conclusion

Antonio Conte has revealed he would love to take charge of Napoli and Roma in the future, but is not in a rush to get back into management. He has already rejected a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia and will wait for the right opportunity to come along before making his return.
