Chelsea boss Conte calls Ausilio for Inter Milan winger Candreva

Inter Milan winger Antonio Candreva is back on the radar of Chelsea boss Antonio Conte.

The Sun says Conte is eyeing up a £21.5million bid for Candreva in the summer window.

And Gazzetta dello Sport says Chelsea boss Conte personally called Inter director of sport Piero Ausilio to enquire about Candreva.

The report claims, the Blues chief said: "I want Candreva, there's £21.5m for you."

Candreva has scored eight goals in 37 appearances in all competitions, including four Serie A strikes.

The right-sided midfielder will be licking his lips at the prospect of teaming up with Eden Hazard, Diego Costa and Co as Chelsea look set to storm to their second Premier League title in three years.
