Conte: Premier League clubs fight with 'bazookas' while others use pistols
Original: Antonio Conte on financial mismatch: ‘In England, they’re using bazookas. Everywhere else, they’re using a pistol’
Napoli coach Antonio Conte has described the financial gulf between English football and the rest of Europe, saying Premier League clubs are 'using bazookas' while everyone else wields 'a pistol'. His remark, reported by The New York Times, underlines concerns that English spending power makes fair competition across leagues increasingly difficult for clubs elsewhere.
Why now: Premier League spending and its competitive impact on European football are a running debate, and Conte's striking metaphor gives it fresh attention.
