Aurelio De Laurentiis, president of Napoli, has denied rumors that manager Antonio Conte is about to step down. Following Napoli’s recent 2-0 Serie A loss to Bologna over the weekend, there was conjecture that Conte was prepared to resign as the team’s head coach. Speaking on the subject, De Laurentiis called the reports “fake stories.” According to Fabrizio Romano, De Laurentiis stated, “I am proud to have a man like Conte next to me, the club, and the squad.” “He is a promise for our team, players, and supporters.” In his debut season with the team, Conte guided Napoli to the Serie A championship. But after 11 games this season, Conte’s team is currently fourth in the Serie A standings, behind Roma, AC Milan, and Inter Milan.
