Over the past few days, rumors of Conte's sacking have spread after he reportedly disagreed with Inter's plans to sell some of his top players due to financial problems.
The financial problems even forced Inter's owner, Suning Group, to strike a deal with American investor Oaktree Capital, which was prepared to disburse a 275 million euro loan.

According to reports on the Italian Football website, Inter will have to pay a compensation fee of seven million euros (approximately Rp121.9 billion) to Conte considering he still has a contract until June 2022.
Rumors in the English media suggest Conte is being approached by Tottenham Hotspur who last April sacked Jose Mourinho and hired Ryan Mason as interim coach until the end of the season.
