Conte never regretted taking Italy job

Italy coach Antonio Conte is leaving his role after Euro 2016, but the former Juve boss says he does not regret taking the job.

Antonio Conte insists he never regretted taking the Italy job, but admits not everything that was promised to him has been delivered.

Conte departed his role as Juve coach to take over from Cesare Prandelli in August 2014, but is to leave after Euro 2016 citing that he missed the day-to-day workings of club management.

The 46-year-old, who is widely tipped to become Chelsea's new manager after the tournament, is set to take charge of his first match since announcing his decision when Italy faces Spain in Udine on Thursday.
