Napoli to Replace Antonio Conte with Maurizio Sarri as Head Coach

Antonio Conte confirmed that he will leave Napoli after the 2025‑26 season, ending a two‑year spell in which he won a Serie A title and a Supercoppa. Club president Aurelio De Laurentiis announced the departure, noting the decision had been discussed for weeks and thanking Conte for his work. Napoli finished the campaign in second place behind Inter.

The club is close to appointing former Napoli coach Maurizio Sarri as Conte’s successor. Negotiations are reportedly finalised, though an official announcement has not yet been made. The hire would mark a stylistic shift for the team as it prepares for the next Serie A campaign and European competition.
