Antonio Conte ready to quit

According to the report, Chelsea's billionaire owner Abramovich is worried Conte will ditch the Blues and head to Inter Milan.

Conte is said to have been wooed by Inter's new Chinese owners, with the San Siro club now believing they can challenge Juventus for the Serie A title and Champions League honours.

Inter are supposedly flush with cash following Suning Group's takeover last year.

The new owners have already sacked one manager and appear willing to axe Stefano Pioli at the end of the current campaign in order to facilitate Conte's arrival.

Last week the Sun claimed Inter were willing to pay Conte £13million a season a catapult them to the top of European football.
Abramovich is said to have offered Neymar to Conte as a sweetener for keeping the manager at Chelsea.

But Conte, 47, appears to be having none of it.

According to the claims, he has no interest in the Brazil international.

Barcelona would likely fend off any attempts to lure Neymar away from the Nou Camp, having slapped a £170million release clause into his most recent contract signed last October.

The 25-year-old's current deal lasts until 2021 and Barca are in no position to sell.
