(ANSA) Rome, August 19 - Former Juventus coach Antonio
Conte has signed a double contract as Italy's new national coach
guaranteeing him as much as 4.5 million euros a year if Italy
qualifies for Euro 2016, the Italian soccer federation said
Tuesday.
Under the first contract Conte's basic stipend will be 2
million euro net a year, with an extra half million for two
years if Italy qualifies for the finals in France in two years'
time.
Under a second contract the FIGC will pay Conte 2 million
euros guaranteed by the sponsor Puma sportswear in return for
sales of TV images of himself.
The deal follows a parallel agreement under which Puma's
contract as sponsor of the Italian national team is extended
from 2018 to 2022, the FIGC said.
