Pavel Nedved reveals Antonio Conte quit Juventus because “he no longer had the energy to continue and had wanted to resign in May.”
Nedved is a member of the Bianconeri backroom staff and told a Czech newspaper the reason Conte abruptly terminated his contract two days into pre-season training.
“Antonio resigned because he no longer had the energy to continue, not because of any disagreements with the directors,” assured Nedved.
“He already wanted to resign in May, but we talked it over and convinced him to think about it over the holidays.
“When he came back, he decided that he didn’t want to carry on. None of what the media have said about Conte’s resignation has been correct. He was simply tired.
