Napoli prepare for life after Osimhen with move for ex-Chelsea boss

Former Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has emerged as favourite to take over from Francesco Calzona this summer.

According to TMW, Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has drawn up a lucrative three-year contract for Conte,in a bid to bring the former Juventus and Chelsea boss to Naples.

Napoli require something new, a fresh start, after what has been a disastrous Scudetto defence.

The reigning champions fighting for Europa League football after a year in which they dominated Italy, is nothing short of embarrassing.

The report further states that Napoli are willing to offer Conte his requested contract – a three-year deal worth €24m net in total, working out to a salary of €8m net per season.

The club have also promised him control in the transfer market, including picking Osimhen’s replacement.
