Journalist Giovanni Capuano stated on his X profile: “Conte was available a year ago and was waiting for a call to come to Turin. It never arrived. To make him a declared target now while he is under contract with Napoli, as reported in the newspapers, is disrespectful to Napoli, their Scudetto ambitions, and his employers. If you wanted to bring him to Juventus, you should have done it in 2024 without involving your club in a very difficult negotiation.”
