Chelsea boss Antonio Conte handed £200 million to spend

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte will have £200 million to spend this summer.

The Telegraph says Conte is set to sign a new four-year Chelsea deal and will then be handed a £200m summer transfer kitty.

The Italian chief will pocket £9.6m-per-year when he pens his improved contract after the FA Cup final.

The Blues boss then wants to splash out on deals for the likes of Romelu Lukaku, Virgil van Dijk and Tiemoue Bakayoko.

Chelsea are confident that Eden Hazard and Thibaut Courtois will also sign new contracts very soon.
