Conte - ItalyItaly coach Antonio Conte spoke about his disappointment as Azzurri coach, expressing some regrets about not working with players with more regularity.

Conte’s frustrations at the helm of Italy have been well documented already, with the Azzurri coach often criticising Serie A coaches and the FIGC for not cooperating with him to improve the national team and Italian football.

Conte spoke in a long interview with magazine Chi, explaining that his time as Italy coach has been disheartening and hinted at a possible club job.

“Before [at Juventus] I had daily contact with all my players, but I chose with my heart and took the Italy job,” Conte said in Chi.

“I like working but I realised that the job as Italy coach is more difficult because of the lack of continuity.

“This has me a bit disappointed today.

“I am now with the national team, and then we will see whether I renew with the Italy project or take a club.”
