Antonio Conte targets Premier League title with Chelsea... but warns it will take time to bring success back to Stamford Bridge

Antonio Conte believes Chelsea can emulate his former club Juventus as he looks to make them title contenders again, but has warned success will take time.

Chelsea won the Premier League in 2015 but slumped to a 10th place finish last season, with coach Jose Mourinho replaced by Guus Hiddink in December following an astonishing decline.

Conte arrived at Stamford Bridge this summer after leading Italy to the quarter-finals of the European Championship, and thinks his previous experience with Juventus has prepared him to lead Chelsea's revival.
