Chelsea manager, Antonio Conte, has rubbished speculations linking him with a summer departure to Inter Milan, but admits his only problem this season is that his family is still living in Italy.
Conte has been rumoured to be homesick and considering a return to Serie A, but in his Friday press conference, he said: “My situation is very clear. I have a contract with Chelsea. We are trying to do something important with the club, for the present, for the future.
“Every coach, when you start work with a new club, you hope to stay many, many years, because it means you are working very well.
“You have the possibility to improve your players, to improve your team and to grow together.”
Conte added: “The only problem for me this season is the family is missing me.
“My family stay in Italy and I’m working, I’m working for the future to try to bring them here and to stay together.”
Chelsea’s top officials remain confident that the Italian will not leave at the end of this season.
The Blues, who are 10 points clear at the top of the table, take on West Ham in their next Premier League fixture on Monday.
