Chelsea manager, Antonio Conte, has once again opened up on the exit of Nemanja Matic, who has signed for their Premier League rivals, Manchester United.
Conte made it clear that he rates the Serbian midfielder and that the decision to sell him was not his.
The Italian also stated that his squad will be worse for the £40million sale.
“Matic knows very well what I think about him. The importance for me about this player, who is a really good player, a top player, very important for our team, but sometimes you must accept this crazy transfer market.
“And sometimes you must accept different decisions. But he is a great loss for us,” Conte told Sky Sport.
Matic made his competitive debut for United, in their 2-1 Super Cup defeat by Real Madrid on Tuesday night.
