Conte and his staff have agreed compensation of £9.5m.
We will pay Napoli €5m (£4.3m) to release Sarri from his contract. And an apparent condition of accepting the lower fee, is a gentleman’s agreement that we won’t sign any of their players, especially the ones with reasonable release clauses.
Zola will join as Sarri’s assistant. Official announcements to be made in the next 3 days.
Sarri In. Conte Out.

Isn't Sarri a notorious racist and homophobe? Should fit in well at the Bridge.

No no no.. I love Zola but the guy couldn't manage himself out of a cardboard box

I think pairing him with Sarri is quite smart personally, makes alot more sense than the rumored partnership with Ancelotti in 2010.
With the assistant you're looking for the counter voice, someone who shares the same thought process but delivers it to the players in a different tone. On the surface Zola does appear to be a good yin to Sarri's yang

I fully expect Martial, Golovin/Seri and Leon Bailey to be in the starting line up, There's been strong links with Rugani of Juventus but I honestly haven't seen much of the geezer.
Hopefully Pedro, Drinkwater and Cahill are off.

I'm sorry but no good can come of this..
I'd rather keep Conte

I'd rather reappoint Scolari than keep Conte. If he stays our worst season since the mid 90's (bar 15/16) is next to certain.

Really?
Spurs & Poch fit together well. Both are supremely skilled at not winning trophies.
Two can play at this pointless game
