Departing Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte cannot join a Serie A rival as part of his termination agreement.

Less than a fortnight after leading Inter to the title, Conte has left Inter after mutually agreeing a termination of his contract.

La Repubblica reports Inter have included a clause in the agreement that says Conte cannot join another Serie A team.

Conte will therefore need to move abroad if he wishes to get back into coaching straightaway.

Inter are now frantically seeking a replacement for Conte and reports in Italy tonight have linked them both Max Allegri and off contract Lazio coach Simone Inzaghi.
