Conte: ‘Never made Juve comparisons’
By Football Italia staff
Chelsea manager Antonio Conte insists he “never made comparisons” with his Juventus triumphs and “never will”.
The former Italy CT was asked if winning the Premier League title with the Blues would be his greatest achievement and replied “yes, for sure”.
That was taken as a diminishing of his three consecutive Scudetti in Turin, the first of which came after two seventh-place finishes.
After last night’s win over Southampton, the former Bianconeri Coach looked to clarify those comments, and today he has hit out at the reporting of his words.
“Nobody ever asked me to compare this possible victory to those at Juve,” Conte fumed in an interview with Sky.
“Since I left, there have been those who have fun trying to bring me down and turn the Juve supporters against me.
“I’ve never made any comparisons and I never will.
“Since I’ve been at Chelsea, I’ve always avoided talking about Juventus, just to make sure there’s no room for controversy. And yet people always find a way to put words in my mouth which I never said!
“I’m furious!”
