Conte Quits Napoli After Citing Toxic Dressing Room
Antonio Conte and Napoli have agreed to part ways by mutual consent after the 2025–26 season, despite his contract running until 2027. The club confirmed his exit with a brief four-word announcement, hours after he and president Aurelio De Laurentiis clashed at a press conference. Napoli finished second in Serie A despite a final-day 1–0 win over Udinese. De Laurentiis lamented that injuries, not form, cost them a title defence. Conte criticised a toxic atmosphere at the club, saying he had failed to unite the dressing room and denouncing those who spread “poison.” He urged such individuals to leave.
