Sources close to Antonio Conte have ­signalled his interest in leaving Chelsea at the end of this season, inviting leading Serie A clubs to bid for his services.

His decision reflects the 48-year-old Italian’s long-standing dissatisfaction at the level of support he has received from Chelsea’s board. Conte seriously considered resigning his position as manager this summer despite leading the London club to the Premier League title in his first season. Disputes over ­Chelsea’s summer recruitment, the inaccessibility of Roman Abramovich and the owner’s senior executive Marina Granovskaia, as well as the promotion of academy players, were all important factors in Conte’s thinking.

Conte repeatedly refused an offer to extend his contract, instead agreeing to a deal that increased his pay without extending his commitment to Chelsea beyond 2019. According to friends, only a severe financial penalty clause written into Conte’s original three-year contract dissuaded the former Juventus and Italy coach from walking out.

Chelsea’s policy on managerial appointments has been to include a ­multimillion-pound “claw-back” clause to prevent them exiting the club against its will. The contract of Conte’s predecessor, Jose Mourinho, included a £20m ­termination penalty, with the Italian understood to have been bound by a similarly penal amount last summer.

Should the Premier League-winning manager remain unswayed by this ­season’s events and execute the plan to leave Chelsea, Abramovich has the option of turning to one of his past appointments as a successor. Dismissed by Bayern Munich last week, Carlo ­Ancelotti has told friends that he would prefer his next position to be at a Premier League club.

Conte granted an interview to the ­Italian state broadcaster Radio 1 last week, stating that there was “not a doubt in my mind that I will be home before long”. He added: “I miss Italy, that’s beyond doubt, so once I have had some important and life-changing experiences, I will be back.”

Я ведь правильно понимаю значение слова интервью-собеседника спрашивают, он отвечает.
