CONTE DISMISSES INTER SPECULATION

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has dismissed stories linking him with a return to Italy this summer.

Reports in the manager’s home country – quoting an agent, Federico Pastorello – had suggested he was considering a move, with Inter Milan the most likely destination.

“I’m very happy to stay,” Conte said.

“I read this interview about Pastorello. I don’t know him and I don’t know why this person has spoken about me.”

He added: “I worked in Italy. They want to come back for me in Italy. It’s normal. I have two more years of contract with Chelsea.

“This is the truth. This is the most important thing. I don’t like when I listen to other persons talking about me.”
