Conte: “I will bring Italy on top of the world” – Alto Adige

ROMA. Clear and proud, at times self-deprecating. But also tough and direct. Antonio Conte is dressed in blue, resets all of the past and imparts its figure on the national will.

“I like tough challenges: I want to bring my idea of ​​football in blue. I do not know where Italy is today but I know where it deserves to be: on top of the world, “she says on the day of the presentation after signing the contract as coach of the new foundation. Over an hour of questions and answers; President Tavecchio on one side and the other dg Valentini, Lotito in the front row, a full house in the auditorium. The international press has arrived in Rome to understand and meet the man who hates to lose, live to win – “my better judgment” – and gave the Italian football club the only hope to compete with the rest of Europe. But now it is no longer of Champions. The controversy over the contract and the weight of the sponsors, and the shadow of disqualification from calcioscommesse are obstacles to be addressed immediately. “There will be nothing for granted: we started from scratch.” “I am proud and happy: I’m in the place that all the coaches in the world would want,” the debut of Count accompanied by greetings to Prandelli (“did a great job, his Italian Europeans is the example to follow”) and topped off with a confession: “I never expected to start after only 35 days from the Adda at Juve: expecting a top club, came a top club.”

The new national will Giaccherini of Italy, most of which Balotelli. Antonio Conte coach for a day, but the clock is ticking. And the messages he cared more has already given them. “I prefer 25 bad players with a great desire, stronger than 25 who have not.” And then: “It starts from scratch.” And again: “I look at the player, I choose man.” The first meetings on horseback start of the series A, in ten days, while blues players abroad should be advised by tomorrow. “But it’s time to experiment a little there,” explained Conte. Rally September 1 at Coverciano, in each case without Buffon and Pirlo engaged in the game of the night Francis Pope of Peace: to see if the second will come with the first day after, you have to wait for a call from Conte. Pirlo had announced before the World Cup withdrawal; had the correct route in Brazil (“if you need back, just play …”); and after the defeat had reaffirmed its willingness to return if the new coach had asked. “I’ll call him, hear what he says, he will hear what I have to say I …”, clarified yesterday Conte, appeared tougher than expected. Technical qualities, race, total availability to follow: these are the three characteristics that the new coach search, and although it will start playing strength from the block Juve and his form three years at Juventus had convinced him that some of the old had run out of energy . “Qualifications are to be deserved, for everyone.” By Balotelli in the first place. “They will not be allowed social, indolence, prima donna attitudes and above all lack of team spirit.”

With its 8 million net in two years (9 in the case of the European Championship qualifier), Earl is the highest paid coach ever and the first to take advantage of the ” innovative formula ‘intervention the sponsor. But if a record is already obtained, Conte does not care about “the controversy on the contract,” and especially that of interference from the replica Puma does not even want to hear about: “Nothing and no one can tell me what to do,” growls the day of the presentation. “It’s an investment: you could not look for excellence,” says Tavecchio. 4.5 million per year for two years, with the intervention of the Puma and the federation of which does not exceed the threshold of his previous management technique, or rather has to earn through other sponsors. In the details: Conte has signed two agreements for a total amount of 4 million net per year that can go up to 4.5 in the case of the European Championship qualifier. Both are with the Football Association, the first (2 million) as coach of the national youth coordinator and unifying role and remuneration of Prandelli and Sacchi; the second for the sale of one hundred percent of image rights. At the same FIGC will turn to other Conte 2 million net per year, insured by Puma for the exploitation of the image of the coach, and in the case of qualification million in the biennium always by the sponsor.

In this context, Puma obtained by the FIGC extension of the partnership from 2018 to 2022 “I had never sold my image rights in toto: I have built a winning image, if you win you’re worth 10 1 … otherwise I think it’s been given a fair assessment to this, “he explained Conte.
