Juventus President Andrea Agnelli and Conte were involved in a clash at the end of Juventus-Inter last night.
“Andrea Agnelli vented everything he had accumulated against Conte after a tense game,” Cobolli Gigli told Punto Nuovo Sport Show.
“However, he used offensive words and that was a mistake,” the former Juventus President added.
“Conte is surely a very competent coach, but he is a bit wild. I wouldn’t want to be his wife or his daughter.
“He has important technical values, but on a personal level it’s a bit different.
“We thought about him when we wanted to replace [Claudio] Ranieri, but I had to tell [Jean Clause] Blanc what he had done when we played against Arezzo, winning 5-1.
“Conte was the coach of the Tuscans and you could hear him shout in the dressing room because we didn’t draw the game, it was a nonsense reaction.
"In my opinion, his style and his mentality were not appropriate for a Juventus coach."
