Antonio Conte is determined to keeper Giovanni Di Lorenzo at Napoli next season despite interest from Inter Milan and Juventus.

So far, Di Lorenzo has not backed down in his desire.

The Italian international has made it clear that he feels his time at Napoli is over.

This has put some of Serie A’s biggest clubs on high alert. Both Inter and Juventus see Di Lorenzo as a target if he is available this summer.

So far, the Napoli captain continues to want to leave this summer.
