Chelsea Transfer News: Antonio Conte Addresses Cesc Fabregas, Oscar Exit Rumours

Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has stated the squad he has is “complete,” meaning neither Oscar nor Cesc Fabregas will be leaving Stamford Bridge in the upcoming transfer window.

Both players have found minutes difficult to come by under the Italian in recent weeks, with the 3-4-3 system being utilised by Conte not suited to the talents of either. However, speaking with Gazzetta dello Sport (h/t Sport Witness) the Chelsea boss has insisted they'll be staying put regardless.

“La Rosa (an Italian term literally meaning ‘the rose’ but used to describe a squad) is complete,” he said.
