Antonio Conte To Leave Napoli This Summer

Napoli are preparing for a managerial shake-up at the end of the season after head coach Antonio Conte decided to walk away from the club.

The decision, understood to have been made about a month ago, has already been communicated to club president Aurelio De Laurentiis. The departure is expected once the current campaign concludes, with early planning now shifting towards the club’s next appointment.

Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano reported the development on 𝕏 on earlier today, May 19, stating: “Antonio Conte has decided to leave Napoli at the end of the season, it’s over. Conte made his decision and informed the president De Laurentiis already one month ago. There will be no exit fee, Conte will leave without severance pay and without any agreement elsewhere.”

The revelation signals the end of a brief but influential spell that reshaped the club’s ambitions and standards. Conte arrived with a reputation for intensity, tactical clarity and rapid squad transformation. That profile quickly translated into results on the pitch.

Napoli’s hierarchy had viewed his appointment as a major statement of intent. Within months, the team showed renewed structure and competitiveness, reinforcing the belief that the club could sustain a push at the top of Italian football.

The most notable highlight came when Napoli secured the Serie A title in his debut season. The triumph marked a defining moment for the club and underlined Conte’s ability to deliver silverware swiftly. The campaign was further strengthened by victory in the Supercoppa Italiana, another sign of his immediate impact.

Despite those achievements, his exit now leaves uncertainty around Napoli’s long-term sporting direction. At the time of writing, no official statement has yet been issued by the club, but attention has already turned to who could take charge of the next chapter.
