Conte likes Dzeko but Chelsea have made no offer, says agent

Antonio Conte admires Edin Dzeko but talk of a transfer to Chelsea is premature, according to agent Irfan Redzepagic.

Chelsea have not made an offer for Edin Dzeko but boss Antonio Conte is a keen admirer of the Roma striker, his agent has said.

The Bosnia-Herzegovina international, who scored twice in the 3-3 Champions League draw with the Blues at Stamford Bridge in October, is among a handful of powerful centre-forwards to have been linked with a January move to the club.

Dzeko's representative, Irfan Redzepagic, claims Conte is a fan of the former Manchester City man's qualities but insists there has been no approach.
