Antonio Conte drops major hint over next job amid Manchester United links

Conte would love to return to Premier League after failed Spurs stint

Taking charge at Old Trafford would also represent Conte’s third managerial spell in English football.

The 57-year-old previously enjoyed considerable success with Chelsea, winning the Premier League during his first campaign before later lifting the FA Cup.

His subsequent spell with Tottenham proved far more turbulent and ended with his departure in March 2023.

Conte has nevertheless demonstrated throughout his managerial career that he is comfortable operating under enormous pressure, having also won multiple Serie A titles.

There is currently no indication that Manchester United have decided to replace Carrick or approached Conte about the position.

But with the Italian openly admitting that he wants to restore a historic club where the expectation is to compete for trophies, his comments are certain to fuel further speculation about a potential future move to Old Trafford.
