‘I Want To Stay At Chelsea For Many More Years’- Antonio Conte

Chelsea manager Antonio Conte says he wants to be in charge of the club for “many years” and lead the Blues into the new Stamford Bridge.

Conte arrived on a three-year deal last summer but is now looking beyond that.

The Blues have planning permission to rebuild their ground, though they are yet to decide whether to proceed.

“This could be a fantastic challenge for me and also for the club – to stay together and to play with this team in a new stadium,” said Italian Conte.

The last manager to have four calendar years in charge of Chelsea was John Neal between 1981 and 1985.

“I want to break this bad record. I must be positive,” added Conte, who steered the Blues to the Premier League title in his first season.

“When you start a job with a new club, I hope to stay in this club for many years. Honestly, the new stadium will be great – but I love Stamford Bridge a lot.

“Stamford Bridge is like my house.”
