The San Siro chief says the decision to part ways with the Italian boss was taken to protect the "solidity of the club"
Inter president Steven Zhang has revealed why Antonio Conte left his post with Serie A champions, admitting "our different views led to the separation".
Conte departed San Siro by mutual consent on May 26, bringing to an end his two-year spell with the Nerazzurri who stormed to their first Scudetto in 11 years under the Italian last season.
It has been reported that Conte walked away from Inter after being told they would need to sell a number of first-team players to cut costs, with Zhang now confirming that he was not prepared to compromise amid the financial uncertainty of the coronavirus pandemic.
