Former Inter Milan striker Alessandro Altobelli says the club was wrong to pay-out Antonio Conte.

Conte quit Inter last week after leading them to the Scudetto.

"I was very upset with Conte's exit. They won't have given him the right guarantees to stay, but I didn't understand his resignation speech. He had a contract for another year, if he didn't like the conditions he could have left but without asking for anything," Altobelli said.

“He decides to leave and is granted a severance pay of €7.5 million. How do you give such a figure to someone who has decided to leave?

“When I left Inter I still had a year left on my contract, but I tore it up and left without expecting anything. The club saved a total of 3 billion lire, I can say that I left something for Inter."
