‘English shock: United make first contact with Conte’

October 25, 2021 Manchester United have officially contacted Antonio Conte for the first time. The currently unemployed top coach is one of the main candidates for the English superpower to take over the coaching baton from the under fire Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. However, a decision must first be made about the Norwegian’s future.

Solskjaer has been under fire for some time due to disappointing results with the strong Manchester United, the ministers of the superpower are now considering his future. According to Sky Italy United have now at least contacted the Italian top coach for the first time. It is not clear whether Conte likes the coaching job.

The 52-year-old coach resigned from Inter after last season after a disagreement with the board. The coach made his club champion, but saw star player Romelu Lukaku leave. Inter proved unwilling to pull the wallet for a multi-million acquisition, so Conte decided to leave. Conte previously worked for Juventus, the Italian national team and Chelsea, among others. At the latter club he became national champion in 2017.

The same trick is expected of him when he starts working for the currently errant Manchester United. After Cristiano Ronaldo’s sensational return, the Red Devils bombed to title favourite, but United swallowed a sour 0-5 defeat to Liverpool this weekend. After four games in a row without a win, United have dropped to seventh place in the Premier League. It is up to Conte to resurrect the English giant from that valley.
