It is the fourth Italian championship for Napoli.

For Conte, he becomes the first coach to win Serie A with three clubs, after achieving the feat with Inter Milan and Juventus.

Conte, speaking after the match, said it was “the most unexpected, the most difficult, and the most stimulating in terms of the challenge.”

Napoli led defending champions Inter by one point ahead of the final round of fixtures and both teams ended up winning 2-0, with the Nerrazzurri seeing off 10-man Como.

Super Eagles playmaker, Alex Iwobi, has admitted they are waiting to see if the team would still play at the 2026 World Cup.

The Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, is optimistic of a potential lifeline from FIFA, after it submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Iwobi was asked by SuperSport if he would rather lift the AFCON 2025 trophy or qualify for the World Cup?

The 29-year-old, who played at the 2018 of the World Cup, replied: “I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.

“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have like in your career, a memorable moment.

“But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been. They would like to say ‘I want to go to the World Cup,’ so I can’t be selfish and say win the AFCON and for my teammates to not go to the World Cup. So it’s a tough one. I don’t know. I don’t know.”
