On the borrowed time? Conte faces exit issue as his Inter future comes under scrutiny

Antonio Conte has ruled out whether the Europa League final could be his last game as Inter head coach.

There have been rumors that Conte’s position would be vulnerable after just one season, with Massimiliano Allegri and Mauricio Pochettino linked with the Nerazzurri.

Former Juventus, Italy and Chelsea boss Conte raised his eyebrows in early August when he said Inter as a club had provided “little protection” to the players during difficult times.

“I am well aware that tomorrow has not yet come. Tomorrow I will try to live and savor the final.

“That’s what I’ve learned to do in my career: try to take things one day at a time, live the present moment, think about the here and now and try to live it from all angles without no regrets.
