As things stand, he'll be succeeded by a former Juventus boss

If that super-exciting two-horse Serie A title race ended in the best possible way for Antonio Conte and Napoli, then this breaking news - just two days later - is the complete opposite!

According to well-informed Sky Sports Italia reporter and transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, the newly crowned Scudetto winners and their head coach are about to terminate their relationship.

"The relationship with Conte is increasingly coming to an end," reports Di Marzio on Sunday night, and says the talks between the two sides should be held on Tuesday, but that "feelings are going in one direction":

"The relationship should end without any ruptures, it would still be a family relationship. The reasons behind this decision are different and do not only concern the economic and market side."

As things stand, the first choice for Conte's successor is Massimiliano Allegri.

Napoli's president, Aurelio De Laurentiis, is eager to snatch the former Juventus boss as soon as possible, thus avoiding the possibility of Inter or Milan hijacking the deal.
