I don’t think I’ll survive as long as Ferguson and Wenger, admits Conte

Antonio Conte thinks that Sir Alex Ferguson is a role model, but doesn’t know if he is capable of replicating his career as he expects to retire at a much younger age than the legendary Scottish manager.

Chelsea’s club director, Michael Emenalo, said that he hopes Conte goes on to manage Chelsea “forever”, but Conte is unsure as to whether he could keep going for as long as Ferguson.

Ferguson won a host of trophies, including 13 Premier League titles and two Champions League crowns in his illustrious career. Conte revealed his respect for the longevity of success achieved by both him and Arsene Wenger.
