The Chelsea Football Club billionaire owner was seen at the Blues training facility this afternoon.

Reports say that the Abramovich was there to meet with the Blues boss to discuss the clubs future, and possibly plan for the upcoming transfer window in January.

Antonio Conte spoke to the media following the daily training session.

In regards to the upcoming transfer market, Conte had this to say  via calciomercato.it:

“I’m lucky because Abramovich is a big football fan and it’s a pleasure to talk with him. The market? We have to think about the present because it is more important. I do not see an opportunity in January to spend money or to change.”

The Chelsea boss has been linked with a few big names  including Juventus’ Leonardo Bonucci and Roma’s Kostas Manolas in hopes of improving his back line which has been weak this season.

Chelsea currently sit in 10th place in the Premier League table, 8 points behind league leaders Manchester City. with Hull City Saturday afternoon, a week after their crushing 3-0 defeat to Arsenal.

Speaking to the press ahead of Chelsea’s game at Hull City on Saturday Conte also had this to say:

“It is never good when you lose, but I think also in these two games we saw and learnt a lot of important things. We must work very hard to recover,” Conte said. “We finished 10th last season – when you finish 10th it means you have problems. Now we are trying to solve this situation, but we haven’t got a magic wand.

“We faced two teams who were very strong (Liverpool and Arsenal) and for me, these two teams are now at the top. We have a lot to improve, but this is the hope we must have. I see the present and the opportunity to improve, it’s not easy. But we know this.”
