Inter Milan and Napoli will battle it out to appoint Max Allegri if Simone Inzaghi and Antonio Conte leave this summer.
This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Libero, via FCInter1908.
At the moment, Max Allegri has been out of work for right around a year.
The 57-year-old parted ways with Juventus at the end of last season.
And since then, Allegri has yet to join a new club.
However, there is a feeling that this could change heading into next season.
Reports indicate that AC Milan are already keen on bringing back Allegri for a second go around after more than a decade.
But two other heavy-hitters in Serie A could also aim for the veteran tactician.

At the moment, there is little doubt that Inter Milan want to keep Simone Inzaghi as coach.
However, successful contract talks with the former Lazio coach are not a foregone conclusion. Particularly after reports of a massive money offer from Al-Hilal.
Meanwhile, Napoli would certainly be happy to go again with Antonio Conte.
But reportedly, the former Juventus and Inter coach is not happy with what he sees as a lack of investment in the squad. Therefore, he could leave on a high after just a season at the helm.
As such, both Inter and Napoli could very well be in the hunt for a new coach at the end of the season.,
And according to Il Libero, both would be keen on Max Allegri.
