Rudi Garcia is risking the axe, Napoli contacts Antonio Conte
Rudi Garcia‘s adventure in Naples seems to have reached its final chapter. To replace the French coach, President Aurelio De Laurentiis‘ top choice is now Antonio Conte, as discussed by market expert Gianluca Di Marzio on Sky Sport 24:
“Antonio Conte is the number one candidate if Rudi Garcia were to be sacked. the fate of the Frenchman depends on a potential agreement between Conte and De Laurentiis. Conte is open to this new adventure; there is harmony with the president. The Italian coach is eager to have a structured team, not one that needs rebuilding.
Possible investment: Of course, there are economic aspects to consider, but De Laurentiis offered the same amount to Luis Enrique that Conte is currently negotiating. If the president wants to make this investment, he can.
If Garcia’s replacement were to happen immediately, Conte wouldn’t be in Turin today for the Juventus event. Di Marzio didn’t rule out the possibility of contact having already been made between the ex Inter and the Napoli president.
