Ex-Chelsea playmaker Oscar moved to Chinese side Shanghai SIPG in a deal worth around £60 million.

Antonio Conte’s switch to the 3-4-3 saw Oscar reduced to a bit-part role in the squad before his exit this month.

Despite falling down the pecking order under Antonio Conte at Chelsea, Oscar has hailed Conte as a nice guy and also acknowledged Conte has the full backing of the dressing room.

“Conte is a nice guy who won over the group,” Oscar said as quoted by Daily Express.

“At the beginning, it was not easy because his philosophy is a bit different but everyone has adapted and now the results are showing it.”
