Sky Sport Italia have claimed that former Tottenham head coach Antonio Conte could be in line for a return to management, with Napoli now eyeing a move for him.
It has been seven months since Conte was sacked by Spurs following his explosive rant where he hit out at the club’s players, accusing them all of being selfish following the 3-3 draw at St Mary’s (ESPN).
It was reported by Sport Mediaset (via VoceGiallorossa) two weeks ago that AS Roma could turn to the 53-year-old to replace Jose Mourinho but that speculation has died down after the Giallorossi registered three back-to-back wins.

Napoli could make a move for Antonio Conte
Sky Italia have now claimed that Napoli could turn to Conte after their disappointing start to the season.
Rudi Garcia only took over from Luciano Spalletti this summer but the Frenchman’s position is allegedly being evaluated after the reigning Serie A champions have won just four of their first eight league games.
It is revealed that Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis and other club officials held a meeting on Monday to discuss Garcia’s future, with the Partenopei said to be eyeing Conte as a potential replacement.

Even though Conte struggled to compete in the Premier League against the best managers in world football, he is still a very good manager, who organises his sides well and I have no doubt that he will do well in the Serie A when he returns to management.
