Former Italy and Juventus coach Marcello Lippi praised Inter coach Antonio Conte in an interview with Italian broadcaster Rai 2 on their show ‘Dribbling’ today.

“Is Antonio Conte Inter’s best signing? Undoubtedly. Everyone says, Conte has a great character and great determination, but he’s not just that. Conte is also a coach who is very well prepared tactically and who is able to organize the team in a very positive way.”

The Nerazzurri are currently top of the league table after 15 games, with coach Antonio Conte breaking multiple records as he continues to push the Nerazzurri, despite their reduced squad depth.

Inter have won 12 out of their first 15 games, with the 50-year-old Italian coach writing himself into Inter’s history books with his incredible start to the season.

Despite the strong start, however, Conte has assured the fans that this year is simply a growth year as the club look to build a new project that will see them regularly compete with the Bianconeri for the league title
