Antonio Conte on Chelsea STARS future!

Antonio Conte has suggested he hopes John Terry will remain at Chelsea but says no decision will be made on his future until the end of the season.

The Chelsea boss confessed that he hopes that Chelsea’s FA Cup tie against Mancester United would not be the last for John Terry, who has found himself struggling to cement a place in the starting line up.

While this is not the first time in his Chelsea career this has happened, many feel this could be the curtain call for the captain, who will turn 37 in December.

Asked if Monday’s quarter-final clash with Manchester United could be Terry’s last FA Cup tie at Stamford Bridge, with the semi-final and final to be played at Wembley, Conte said: “For John? I hope no.

“I don’t know about this. I repeat, I prefer every situation, or my situation, or a player’s situation, to face it at the end of the season, when it will be the right time for everyone.”

“I repeat, John is doing great work this season off the pitch. For me he is very important in this season because he is the captain.

“He is working very well and helping me a lot in the changing room to transfer the right message. He is an important player for us.”

With Conte pointing out the value of Terry to his side, it will be interesting to see where the defenders future lies come the end of the season, where Conte says a decision will be made.
