Here is the latest update from the ongoing FIFA World Cup as of 2026-07-03 18:21:00.
Serie A runners-up Napoli have officially appointed Massimiliano Allegri as their new manager. This move had been anticipated for weeks following Antonio Conte’s departure from the club at the end of May, along with AC Milan’s dismissal of Allegri after a disappointing season.
Allegri has signed a three-year contract with Napoli. He previously led Milan to a Serie A title in 2011, marking a successful first stint at the San Siro. Additionally, he garnered five league titles and as many Italian Cup trophies during his tenure with Juventus.
Allegri’s Previous Tenure
The 58-year-old returned to Milan last year, given the responsibility of revitalizing the squad, which had finished eighth in Serie A the prior season. Despite spending much of the campaign among the top two positions, Milan’s performance waned with only two wins in their final eight matches, ultimately ending the season in fifth place.
Conte’s Legacy and Future
Conte’s successful previous year, in which he guided Napoli to the Serie A title, has left a large legacy at the club. He is now considered a leading candidate for the Italian national team, potentially marking his second stint as Azzurri boss. As the football world gears up for the FIFA World Cup 2026, Napoli will be counting on Allegri to build on the foundation laid by Conte.
