Quagliarella, who has experience playing under Conte, believes that the coach will address the situation with De Bruyne. He recalled a similar incident where he made a joke to Conte's assistant after being substituted and received a stern response from the coach.

Quagliarella said that Conte will likely send a written message to De Bruyne and discuss the issue with him during the week. He also mentioned that Conte has a reputation for being direct and honest with his players, which is why Quagliarella expects him to address De Bruyne's behavior.

Conte has already responded to De Bruyne's outburst, saying that he hopes the midfielder was upset about the game's outcome, not any other issue. He implied that De Bruyne should have directed his frustration at the correct person, rather than lashing out.
