Italy head coach Antonio Conte denied rumors that he could leave the Azzurri just few months since he took the job.
Former Juventus coach held a meeting with Serie A coaches on Tuesday as he continues his tour around the country looking at the training methods employed by Italy’s coaches, though was rumoured to be considering his position as national team coach.
“FIGC President Carlo Tavecchio is right,” Conte said. “I made a commitment to Italians and to people that try to lure me with enthusiasm.
“It’s impossible that I’ll resign.”
Conte also expressed his thoughts about the meeting and about his relationship with his Serie A colleagues.
“It was the first appointment that should be usual,” he declared.
“It’s important for the National Team head coach and for club coaches to have a closer relationship.
“Nobody made any promises. I just needed to confront with them and let them know the way to handle the situations.
“Italy’s training camp will take place on February 9-11, 2015, from Monday until Wednesday.
“It is hard to train national team players as you have them available for just eight or nine days.”
The Azzurri chief also spoke about his relationship with his former club.
“There are no problems with Juventus. We have been not able to visit them yet, but I met the president and the players yesterday [Monday].”
