Conte trolls Red Devils after new Napoli win

- BY NEIL MCLEMAN

ANTONIO CONTE had a dig at Manchester United after two ex-Old Trafford stars helped Napoli emulate Diego Maradona and win the Italian SuperCoppa.

The ex-Chelsea and Spurs boss led the southern giant to the scudetto in his first season in 2024/25. And now Scott McTominay and Rasmus Hojlund - who was loaned after Romelu Lukaku suffered a thigh injury in preseason - starred in the 2-0 win over Bologna in Saudi Arabia.

The Dane posted a picture of himself with the trophy on social media with the caption: “What a great decision looks like” while McTominay lit up a cigar in the dressing room.

The Scotland star was Serie A player of the year after netting 13 goals from midfield after his £25.7million sale by United in August 2024.
