What happened: SSC Napoli have confirmed that head coach Antonio Conte, 56, will leave the club following the final match of the season. Conte had already signalled his departure in a press conference after that game, and the Italian club has now formally announced the exit.

Why it matters: The decision ends Conte's tenure on the Napoli bench and forces a managerial reset at one of Serie A's biggest clubs. Napoli have already agreed a two-year deal with Massimiliano Allegri to take over, signalling the club moved quickly to line up a successor.

What to watch: Attention now turns to Conte's next move amid speculation over where he lands next in Italy, and to how Napoli's incoming manager reshapes the squad ahead of the 2026 campaign.
