Antonio Conte of FC Internazionale poses with the trophy for the victory of "scudetto" at the end of the last Serie A match between FC Internazionale Milano and Udinese Calcio at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on May 23, 2021 in Milan, Italy.
Inter Milan's and Antonio Conte have reportedly agreed to part ways. The report comes to us via Fabrizio Romano’s Twitter and outlines a few details regarding the departure.
Conte will leave the club immediately and be paid €7 million for it to take place in a timely manner. The pivot point seems to be the same that it was last year when the pairing nearly parted ways.
The club and Conte weren’t on the same page regarding offseason financial plans. Inter reportedly plans on selling players to stockpile a bit of cash this offseason, and Conte wasn’t a fan of that.
Official. Antonio Conte leaves Inter with immediate effect, official statement confirms. ⚫️🔵🇮🇹 #Conte #Inter

Who could blame him? Delivers a Scudetto and is then told cost-cutting must take place. A departure, as disappointing as it is for someone who enjoys Conte, makes sense for both sides.
