Reports about strained relationship between Roman Abramovich, the owner of London's "Chelsea," and the team's coach Antonio Conte continue to surface in the foreign press.
Previously, it was reported that the head of the "Blues" club was silently negotiating with potential candidates to replace the 48-year-old Italian coach after the season, and now more details are emerging.
"Marca" reports that R. Abramovich has not spoken to the team's manager for some time, whose team is dropping points in both the Premier League and the Season's continental tournament.
A. Conte nearly left "Chelsea" last summer, but it seems that after this season both sides will definitely go their separate ways, according to the media.
In the Premier League standings, the London club is in fourth place, and in the Champions League they are in second place, however, this week they lost 0:3 away to "Roma."
