Former Manchester United defender and Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville has claimed Antonio Conte will not be at Chelsea next season.
Conte has complained about the summer’s transfer activity at Chelsea regularly throughout the season, and that has angered owner Roman Abramovic to the point that he now wants to see the back of the Italia.
And with the Blues now eight points behind Spurs in the chase for a Champions League spot after losing 3-1 at the weekend, Neville has stated that the Italian will be leaving the Stamford Bridge post at the end of the current season.
“I don’t think he’s going to be here next season,” Neville said on Sky Sports.“We’ve thought it for six or seven months.“And that’s not because we don’t want him here, or we don’t think he’s done a great job, it’s just the nature of the job here. It’s such that when you have a season slightly worse than before, you go.”
Conte won the Premier League in his first season at Chelsea and brought a style of football which is now dominating the world of football.
However, he has lost that hunger, drive and that fire that made him ignite his players and get the results he needed to bring instant success to the club.
