  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  broke the news earlier this week that Milan CEO Giorgio Furlani helds talks with Paratici to take over the role of the sporting director, with even backing up the report by adding that the ex-Juventus and Spurs chief was one of the leading contenders for the job.

  Now it has been reported that, should Paratici join the Rossoneri, he would be keen on reuniting with Conte at the San Siro. Conte has been linked with a departure from Napoli at the end of the ongoing season, with the Italian boss apparently unhappy that the club's board made no prudent efforts to replace Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who joined Paris Saint-Germain in January.

• DID YOU KNOW?

  Although Conte is under contract with Napoli for another two seasons, the former Spurs and Chelsea boss would not mind taking up the head coach position and succeed Sergio Conceicao at AC Milan. Paratici's arrival could make things a lot easier, with the sporting director having previously worked with Conte at Juventus between 2011 and 2014.

  WHAT NEXT FOR ANTONIO CONTE?

  The Italian manager has overseen a fine season at Napoli so far and has made them genuine contenders for the title. However, they have their work cut out in the final stretch of the season. Napoli have won just one of their last seven games in the Serie A, which has seen them fall three points behind league leaders Inter. Napoli's next game is against Conte's potential future employers Milan this Sunday.
