Antonio Conte set to leave Chelsea?
In an explosive report by Sky Sport Italia, it is claimed that Antonio Conte and the Chelsea boardroom have clashed many times since the end of the season. The clashes are reportedly caused by Conte's decision to not include Diego Costa in his future plans with owner Roman Abramovich being a huge fan of the striker.
The manager is also miffed with Chelsea missing out on a number of transfer targets in the last few weeks. It is believed that if the tensions between all the parties do not boil down, Conte will ultimately resign.
Southampton identify Claude Puel replacements
The Saints have decided to rope in a new manager by the end of this week, the Daily Telegraph understands. After Thomas Tuchel denied a move to St. Mary's, Southampton now have shortlisted Frank De Boer - the former Ajax and Inter Milan boss and Mauricio Pellegrino - the former Alaves manager who helped them reach the Copa Del Rey final last season.
Interviews are set to be held for both these candidates with De Boer predicted to win the race.
