'Conte too smart to take Milan job' - Ex-Inter chairman Moratti doubts Chelsea exit

The former Nerazzurri supremo has taken a sly dig at his old rivals, while also comparing current Inter boss Luciano Spalletti to Jose Mourinho

Antonio Conte is a “smart guy” and would not walk away from Chelsea to take the AC Milan reins, says Massimo Moratti.

Having previously admitted that he intends to head home at some stage, the Blues’ Italian boss is now being linked with every high-profile post which becomes available.

Conte was previously touted for a second spell in charge of the Italy national side, following their failure to reach the 2018 World Cup, while the departure of Vincenzo Montella in Milan has seen his name thrown into the hat at the San Siro.
