Inter Milan boss Antonio Conte set to leave the club next week. The Italian is expected to leave the San Siro by mutual consent after Friday’s defeat.
Inter were defeated 3-2 by Sevilla in the Europa League final on Friday and after the game, Conte admitted that he may leave the side.
Conte fell out with the Inter hierarchy after making angry comments at the end of the Serie A season three weeks ago, claiming his side had to ‘eat dung’ given by the owners during their faltering title campaign.
A report by Football Italia, the manager will arrange his San Siro exit next week when the Italian meets with club owners after a couple of rest days following the damaging Sevilla defeat.
Reports further indicate that former Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri is the ‘hot favourite’ to take the reins at the San Siro for when Conte does depart.
Speaking to the media after the Europa League defeat, Conte said:
‘It’s only right that we analyze the entire season, look at everything in a very calm way, and try to plan the future of Inter, whether it’s with or without me.
‘It has been difficult and we’ll figure things out. It has been wonderful for me to be the coach of Inter, I thank the owners who allowed me to go through this great experience.’
Conte led Inter to second place in Serie A, one point behind the champions Juventus.
