Serie A is primed for a busy coaching carousel at the end of the season, which might have a few surprises. Antonio Conte is one of the main dominoes. His possible Napoli exit would trigger even more movements, La Gazzetta dello Sport informs.
After what happened between Milan and Fabio Paratici, Juventus would be the top destination for the Azzurri manager. He might feel to have unfinished business there. They’d go with a high-end boss if they didn’t confirm Igor Tudor. The obstacles that impeded his return in the past are no longer there.
Napoli would need a new gaffer in that scenario. They have intensified the contacts with Massimiliano Allegri, who prioritizes Serie A for his return. He and Aurelio De Laurentiis have already talked a few times in previous years. He’s familiar with former Juventus exec Giovanni Manna.
Gian Piero Gasperini will be in demand too. He’s the main fallback for Juventus, but Milan are mulling over him too. However, he might finish his career in Saudi Arabia. Vincenzo Italiano has multiple suitors, but it won’t be easy to lure him away from Bologna. The Rossoneri, Napoli, and Roma could try.
Maurizio Sarri has been linked to a pair of top Serie A sides, but things have only been preliminary for him. He could head abroad. Roberto De Zerbi will be in the mix. His relationship with Olympique Marseille is getting progressively worse. Francesco Farioli, who’s about to win the Eredivisie with Ajax, will be sought after. Instead, Roberto Mancini is suddenly close to returning at Sampdoria as a director, Gianluca Di Marzio informs.
