Conte has been linked with the Italy job, but during his post-match press conference on Sunday, he reiterated that he hasn’t even begun talks with the Italian FA, which will vote for a new President on June 22, 2026.

Conte joked that if he didn’t find a new team this summer, he might join De Laurentiis in Los Angeles to watch the World Cup.

What happened

Napoli publicly confirmed Antonio Conte's departure on Monday with a brief farewell message on social media. The exit follows Conte's own confirmation after the final match against Udinese and ends a successful two-year spell. During that period, he delivered a Serie A title and a Supercoppa Italiana for the club. The report also notes that while Conte has been linked with the Italy job, he said he has not started talks with the federation.

Chance analysis

This matters because Napoli are losing a title-winning coach, which creates immediate uncertainty around tactical continuity, squad planning, and short-term stability. Even if the split had been anticipated, official confirmation raises the relevance of successor news and increases volatility around Napoli-related expectations for next season.

Impact

Napoli face short-term strategic uncertainty after officially losing a successful head coach.
