Antonio Conte denies Juventus and Manchester United, defers
Antonio Conte has broken the silence on his future plans, speaking directly from his Instagram profile. The Salento coach has rejected the rumours linking him to Juventus, often called Juve, and Manchester United, stating that at the moment there are no advanced negotiations.
Rumours about Juventus and Manchester United
The rumours, spread in recent days by various news outlets in Italy and abroad, have linked his name to several European benches, particularly Juventus and Manchester United. The rumours also mentioned Juve, but the coach denied any negotiation. “In light of the rumours published in recent days by various news outlets, in Italy and abroad, I consider it appropriate to intervene to provide clarity,” he wrote on his Instagram profile.
After the successful spell at the helm of Napoli, the Salento coach said he wants to take the necessary time to assess his own future, without rushing the timeline of a return to the bench. He emphasized that he does not intend to hurry into a new challenge.
Conte denies: no talks, will buy time after Napoli
His name has been linked to numerous clubs, but at the moment there is no negotiation in an advanced stage, Conte clarified. He also denied the speculation about alleged financial demands, the desire for full powers, and the reservations linked to his character, describing them as “baseless.”
Conte does not rule out the possibility of a new adventure, but he will postpone any assessment until a concrete opportunity arises. “It will be the moment to discuss with the interested club and jointly evaluate the terms of a possible agreement,” he added.
In summary, the rumours about Juventus and Manchester United find no confirmation in the coach’s words, who prefers to wait for the right project before making a decision. Conte’s future therefore remains open, awaiting a concrete offer.
