Antonio Conte is close to agreeing a deal to become the new manager of Inter Milan.

The Serie A side will only sack their current boss Luciano Spalletti if they can secure the former Chelsea manager.

Conte has been without a club since being sacked by Chelsea in July 2018.

Any potential deal which would see Conte take over at the San Siro side cannot be announced before June 30 due to regulatory issues.

Conte and Chelsea have been involved in a Premier League arbitration tribunal over the terms of his departure from Stamford Bridge.

Inter are currently third in Serie A, 26 points behind champions Juventus.
