Napoli boss Carlo Ancelotti said that he has no intention to contest for the Juventus job which will be left vacant following Massimiliano Allegri’s departure.

The Napoli boss has done well to take them to second position in his first season. It was only natural that he was linked to a return to the Turin-based club where he had a forgettable time during his stint at the turn of the century.

Ancelotti – who signed a three-year deal last may – reiterated his intention to stay at Napoli.

“I have a clause on May 30, and I hope Napoli will exercise it,” he told Sky Sport Italia, according to Goal.

“I’m tied to the club and I’d like to stay for another two years. I’m happy to be here. The coach is always the last to know anything. They always live in doubt. I know sackings are part of our work.

“Experience shows that, for coaches, only results count so planning becomes difficult. I suffered more when I was sacked by Juventus, but then I got used to it.”
