Antonio Conte will be announced as the next manager of Inter on either Wednesday or Thursday of this week according to a report from Sky Sport.

The reason it will take until Wednesday or perhaps even Thursday is due to the fact club management still need to meet with current Inter boss Luciano Spalletti to thank him for his efforts and to tell him they are going down a new path with Conte.

Spalletti could find himself tied up with engagements back in Tuscany which is why it could take as long as Thursday until former Italian national team manager Conte’s arrival is formalised.

The report from the Italian broadcaster goes on to state that Inter’s management have been made aware that these days could see the official announcement.

It concludes by backing up other reports in stating that Conte will join the Inter management at the Wanda Metropolitano on Saturday night to take in the Champions League final.
