With the Premier League won and hopes of landing a unique League and FA Cup double still very much alive, it`s not been a bad first season for Antonio Conte.
In fact, to be honest, it`s been a darn good one.
But, you get the impression Conte isn`t one to sit on his laurels.
His determination to take Chelsea back to the summit of European football will see no stone unturned at Stamford Bridge as the Italian badgers the club to bring in the reinforcements he feels are necessary to take the club to that next stage of its evolution.
When Chelsea won the Premier League back in 2014 / 2015, the accusation was levelled that the club, having won the title, failed to take the necessary steps to ensure they didn`t stand still.
What happened is history, the worst defence of a title we`ve ever made and Jose Mourinho axed.
Already, we`ve run an article today whereby the insinuation that a £200 million transfer chest is available and it seems the good folk of The Sun, have stumbled upon a midfielder Chelsea are prepared to pay big bucks for,
The player in question is the Italian midfielder, Marco Verratti, with it being suggested that Chelsea are willing to pay £55 million for the 24-year-old who is currently on the books of Paris Saint-Germain.
But what`s your views on this piece of speculation?
Do you see Verratti as the perfect fit for Chelsea Football Club.
