Chelsea slammed Inter 10.5 million for Victor Moses
Reports out of Italy in the last few days has it that Conte has pencilled down the former Nigerian international as one of the players he wants to build the team around next season.
Conte was a big fan of Moses during his two-year stint at Chelsea, converting from a winger to a wing-back as they went on to win the Premier League and the FA Cup.
Chelsea has slammed 10.5 million pounds asking price on Inter Milan target Victor Moses according to reports from Italy. Former Chelsea boss, Antonio Conte has been tipped to take charge of Inter Milan once Luciano Spalletti steps down in the coming days.
However, Chelsea has now slammed 10 million pounds on the player who’s currently on loan in Fenerbahce in Turkey after he was told he has no future at the Club by Conte’s successor Maurizio Sarri.
The 28-year-old, despite having just 13 months left on his contract had scored four times for Fenerbahce in fourteen appearances after joining back in January.
Meanwhile, Moses has described Antonio Conte as the most important manager he’s ever worked with, adding that the Italian football tactician left a mark on his career.
Before the arrival of the former Juventus and Italy boss at Chelsea, the winger had spent three successive loan spells at Liverpool, Stoke City and West Ham United.
Conte revived the career of Moses by converting him into a wing back as they won the Premier League title for the 2016-2017 season and the FA Cup the following season.
”I have played under a lot of managers and I’ve loved every single one of them. The most important one was Antonio Conte. He just came in, he changed everything,” Moses said to TRT World.
”He is an amazing man, he totally changed my game, to be honest. He gave me that fighting spirit to believe in myself and to enjoy my football same time.
”And then when he came that first season, we won the league, the following season we won the FA Cup. It was an amazing season for me under Antonio Conte and I’ll always respect him for that, he’s an amazing man.”
The Chelsea-owned winger was asked if he would be interested in reuniting with Conte, who is the favourite to replace Luciano Spalletti as coach of the Nerazzurri.
Moses said: ”As I said before I came here to play football and I’m playing the football at the moment and no one knows what the future is going to hold. I love the club.”
