Alessio Tacchinardi, Antonio Conte’s teammate during his playing days at Juventus, has revealed he hopes Conte leaves Chelsea at the end of the season.

Tacchinardi is adamant Conte has been unfairly treated in England.

“Honestly, I hope he leaves Chelsea because this season he has been a target like a pigeon,” Tacchinardi told Omnisport via Daily Express.

“Right since the first game they have started a media massacre against him.

“Last year they let him work, but this time right from the start they put him against his own chairman for the transfers.

“They have been heavy on a manager who took a side that ranked seventh and let them win the Premier League.”
