Former technical director Michael Emenalo resigned from his role as Chelsea’s technical director last month, but just 21 days later took the same role at Monaco.

Emenalo has praised Chelsea manager Antonio Conte, hailing him as one of the best in the world and insisting that his job as Chelsea manager is safe.

“Chelsea are very lucky,” Emenalo told talkSPORT. “Every year we seemed to find some very good people to manage or coach that club and I think in Antonio Conte they have one of the best three coaches in the world.

“I think that he enjoys a lot of respect at the senior level, the board level and the ownership level of the club, so there should be no worries at all.”
