Chelsea coach Antonio Conte may be forced to stay silent on the touchline against Arsenal on Sunday due to a sore throat.
the Italian has fallen ill after catching an infection from the air conditioning on the team bus and may be forced to take a different approach.
He explained: “I hope to solve this situation. From yesterday, I took antibiotics, also today and tomorrow, I hope to solve the situation, otherwise… it will be a problem for me.
“In my office when I arrive, I turn off the air conditioning. But when you stay on the bus, I risk a lot, because I suffer with the air conditioning.”
When he was asked if his sore throat was caused by running out of the trusted medicine, the former Juventus midfielder replied light heartedly: “No. In this case, I think the air conditioner was stronger than my sweets!”
