Italian legend Andrea Pirlo has branded Chelsea boss Antonio Conte ‘the best coach in the world’, as reports linking him with a move away from the club continue.
Conte’s long-term future at Stamford Bridge remains in doubt, with the manager said to be unhappy at the club and planning to leave at the end of the season.
The former Italy and Juventus head coach has been strongly linked with a return to his homeland, and Chelsea hero Frank Lampard recently told talkSPORT that ‘something doesn’t feel quite right’ at the London side.
