Again, Antonio Conte Fumes At Abramovich For Not Signing This Italian Star

According to new revelations, Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is very much displeased with the Chelsea management after they ignored his request to sign Andrea Belotti from Torino.

Instead, the premier league champions have pursued a deal to re-sign Romelu Lukaku from Everton, and the Italian boss is not too happy.

The Daily Star claims the former Juventus manager told his current employers to sign Belotti and cannot understand why they instead made the decision to go after Lukaku.

It is understood that both Lukaku and Belotti are valued at around the £85million mark, and Antonio is frustrated that Mr Roman Abramovich chose to go with the choice of technical director Michael Emenalo, ignoring his own.

Belotti enjoyed a fabulous campaign in the just concluded season at Torino and has caught the attention of top clubs across Europe. In 35 games in the Italian top flight, the Italy star was able to score 26 goals and provided 7 assists.

It is understood that Jose Mourinho is also trying to lure the 23-year-old to Old Trafford, and Conte will grow more frustrated if his rival achieved success in getting Belotti’s signature.

Chelsea are expected to pay above £70M to Everton for the signature of Lukaku after another fabulous campaign in front of goal at the Goodison Park. In 37 games for the Toffees, he scored 25 goals and provided six assists.
