Genoa youth coach Cristian Stellini has revealed that he would have no option but to answer to Antonio Conte’s call if he wants him at Chelsea in the summer.

With Steve Holland set to leave Chelsea at the end of the season, the Blues are on the lookout for a new assistant to Conte and the Italian wants his former colleague at Juventus.




The 43-year-old was part of Conte’s backroom staff at Juventus in his first season in charge of the Italian champions and has built a reputation over the years as a coach.

Currently in charge of the Genoa youth team, the Italian has already said that it would be hard to say no to Chelsea if they want him and admits that a call from his coaching godfather would be hard to ignore.
 


He stressed that he has learned a lot from the former Juventus and Italy boss and would answer Conte’s call if he wants him in his backroom staff at Chelsea.

“He has taught me so much and I am grateful.

“And if the call came, I surely would have to answer.”
