Fiat Group President John Elkann says Antonio Conte is 'not a Coach' as he escalates their argument.
The man behind Juventus as a business and the man who used to be behind their tactics are caught in a heated polemic after midfielder Claudio Marchisio picked up a cruciate ligament injury in training.
The Bianconeri lose the player at a crucial juncture as they prepare for the Champions League quarter-finals against Monaco, and this prompted Elkann to publicly question Conte's work-loads in training.
On from the triple Scudetto winner's response, Elkann stoked their argument again.
“Conte used to be a Coach in Turin, but in the national team he's just a cherry-picker,” he said, as reported by Gazzetta.it.
“Those are two different jobs. Perhaps he'd like to be remembered as the cherry-picker with the highest number of injuries.”
