According to La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Napoli, capital of Campania region of Italy
intend to hire
Conte
as the team's head coach and is considering other candidates such as Pioli and Gasperini.
Reports suggest that Napoli are planning a change of manager this summer and that the current Calzona is only a transitional coach. The club is looking to restart after the summer transfer window to work on new goals.
Although Conte had turned down an offer from Napoli last year, De Laurentiis is still hoping to hire him. The club has reconnected with Conte and has promised a lucrative annual salary as well as bonuses related to Champions League qualification. Qualifying for the Champions League will be Napoli's main goal next season.
If they fail to convince Conte, Napoli will turn to other candidates such as Gasperini and Pioli. Gasperini will decide his future after the UEFA Cup final, while Pioli's future may not be with AC Milan, and his calmness, contract status, and resume make him a possible replacement. Finally, Napoli are also eyeing Fiorentina boss Italiano.
