Rome based newspaper Corriere dello Sport outline this Summer’s possible domino effect of clubs changing their coaches.
According to the report, “starting with Allegri, there is a 75% chance that he stays but nothing will be certain until he has had his face-to-face with Agnelli. As the coach stated this has still not happened and is not expected to happen until the end of the season. If Allegri were to leave, PSG would pursue him.”
“Now with three opportunities, where would Conte go? Roma are convinced they have done all they can do to persuade him and are now waiting for his response. Petrachi will join in the Summer, which is the biggest temptation for Conte to follow him, since the two are good friends.”
“But the former Chelsea coach has asked for more time for two reasons. Firstly, he wants to see if Agnelli will take him back if Allegri leaves. Secondly, he’s currently also in contact with Marotta at Inter, but Marotta is waiting for the approval from Zhang on the big financial decision to sack Spalletti and hire Conte.”
“Sacking Spalletti and his staff alone would cost 25 million. Zhang is waiting to secure Champions League Football before such a sacrifice can be made.”
