Conte brushes aside Inter talk as Blues close on title
Print Edition
CHELSEA boss Antonio Conte dismissed persistent rumors linking him with a move to Inter Milan as his side prepared for a match at West Bromwich Albion today that could give the Blues the Premier League title.
Victory at The Hawthorns will see Chelsea crowned champion in former Italy manager Conte’s first season in charge of the London club and leave it halfway to a domestic ‘Double’ ahead of its FA Cup final against capital rival Arsenal.
Chelsea is seven points clear of second-placed Tottenham Hotspur, another London club, and needs just three points from its final three league games this season to be sure of lifting the Premier League trophy.
Yet despite Conte’s excellent start at Stamford Bridge, there has been continued speculation he could return to his native Italy. He has been linked with a move to Inter ever since the Italian giant sacked Stefano Pioli earlier this season.
“I have two years (remaining under) contract with Chelsea,” Conte said yesterday. “It’s logical when you start the work in a new club the will is to continue to work, to try to improve your work in many years. For sure, this is my will. In this moment for me or for my players, the most important thing is to be focused on the moment.”
Chelsea announced it had appointed Conte, 47, on a three-year contract in April 2016 and he took up his post at Stamford Bridge in July after managing Italy at Euro 2016.
