Roma considering Conte move to replace Di Francesco

Chelsea v Manchester United - The Emirates FA Cup Final


Former Chelsea head coach Antonio Conte is emerging as a serious contender to replace Eusebio Di Francesco at Roma this season.

According to local outlet La Stampa, as cited on Inside Futbol, Conte is being considered by the club, as they prepare for all eventualities.
A lot was expected of Roma this season, but the Giallorossi have won just one of their first five games of the campaign, leaving them languishing in the bottom half of the table.
Di Francesco earned plenty of plaudits for his efforts at the club last season but is now under serious pressure to stay in a job.

Conte is still being paid by Chelsea after the club refused to sack him from his contract, so the Italian side would need to negotiate with the Blues in order to reach a deal.

Roma would be forced to buy Conte out of his Chelsea contract, despite the Italian not officially being in charge of the club.
The Italian left Chelsea at the end of last season after failing to guide the club to a top-four finish. - Read Sport
