Conte is not going anywhere after all

One less dilemma when it comes to the coaching carousel in Serie A. Numerous clubs are set to change managers, and Napoli was rumored to be among them. However, Aurelio De Laurentiis has decided not to look for a new coach to defend the title this time. Three years ago, Luciano Spalletti brought Napoli their long-awaited third championship trophy, but he left the club shortly after the season ended. It seemed like the same might happen with Antonio Conte this May, especially with rumors of a move to Juventus. However, the trophy-winning coach is staying at the foot of Mount Vesuvius to defend what he won. Con Te 𝑨𝑮𝟒𝑰𝑵!💙 #ProudToBeNapoli #AG4IN pic.twitter.com/KbcKNEnfLu— Official SSC Napoli (@sscnapoli) May 29, 2025 Quite unexpectedly, Conte brought Napoli their fourth title, and it truly would have been strange if he had left after such a major celebration. It seems he managed to get under the president’s skin and secure guarantees that his ideas for the team and work methods would be supported. After a meeting on Thursday, Conte and De Laurentiis were seen leaving the building together and getting into a van. That was a clear sign everything went positively, and a bit later came the official confirmation.”Con Te AG4IN,” the club posted on social media—a play on words meaning “With you – again.” Now, on to the pursuit of the fifth Scudetto!Napoli’s double mission – Conte and Jonathan DavidLast June, Conte was given the biggest transfer budget in Napoli’s history and made excellent choices for reinforcements. For 150 million pounds, they brought in what may have been Europe’s best signing last season—Scott McTominay—along with defensive pillar Alessandro Buongiorno, Serie A’s top assist provider Romelu Lukaku, David Neres, Billy Gilmour, Rafa Marín, and others. In January, Napoli handicapped Conte by selling Khvicha Kvaratskhelia to Paris Saint-Germain and failing to bring in an adequate replacement, yet the title still found its way to Naples. Now, Conte is preparing for another big splash in the upcoming transfer market, with the first signing expected to be Kevin De Bruyne—a leader like few others in Europe, even if his footballing prime is behind him.’De Bruyne brought a house in Naples’Although there was great uncertainty in recent days about who would coach Napoli next season, Aurelio De Laurentiis reminded everyone that Conte has a contract until 2027.”It’s normal to meet at the end of the season and analyze. We have a contract, and since our visions for the future align, it’s only natural we continue together. We’ll play in the Champions League, but the priority is defending the Scudetto. I’ll support Conte in everything he asks to strengthen the team and continue achieving great results” said the Napoli president to the many journalists awaiting the outcome of last night’s meeting. The coach followed up:”It was wonderful to celebrate the title with the wonderful people of Naples. Our goal is to continue together and make Napoli fans even prouder” emphasized Antonio Conte, sparking a new wave of euphoria at the foot of Vesuvius.##NAJAVA_MECA_8957213##
