Boas’s statement reads: “I think he [Conte]can be a good fit, depending on that link up with the top.”

“In football, you always reach stages where that link up to the top has to be there and when you look up most likely it is not there anymore. If that link-up is fine-tuned it can maybe be a good fit.”

“I don’t want to turn this into a criticism of Daniel. Everybody has their ups and downs, their strengths and weaknesses, but Daniel is not an easy person to deal with. I said that when Jose (Mourinho) went there and I was at Marseille. ”

He added:  “There are a lot of things that have to be said frontally, face to face, each side with truthfulness. But sometimes they look like they don’t happen that way.”

“…He’s not the easiest person to deal with. But what is easy right now in football?”

“But for Antonio, it will be a challenge, a great challenge.”
