Antonio Conte blocks Roman Abramovich’s £155.5m transfer deal!

Antonio Conte has apparently turned down club boss Roman Abramovich’s offer to sign Neymar for Chelsea, according to reports in Italy.

Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport are saying that Blues billionaire owner has reached an agreement with Barca to sign the Brazilian for €180 million (£155.5m).

However, Conte is said to have told Abramovich that he wants to look into other transfer targets this summer.

Tuttosport claim that Abramovich is concerned by Inter’s strong interest in the Chelsea manager and is therefore willing to bring a marquee players to Stamford Bridge in order to keep the Italian happy.

Personally, I think this is all fake news:

Tuttosport’s front page on Friday led with Conte rejecting Neymar.
