Finishing Premier League In Top Four My Priority, Not Future at Chelsea – Conte

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has said finishing in the Premier League top four is more of a priority than his own future.

Fifth-placed Chelsea trail Tottenham by two points and Liverpool by three with two games to play in the race to qualify for the Champions League.

“I’m very focused on the present, to do the job in the best way for the players and the fans,” said Conte.

“Our job is not simple, it’s not easy. But I’m totally focused on the present.”
The Italian, who won the league last season in his first campaign in charge at Stamford Bridge, is under contract until June 2019.

However, his future has been the subject of speculation all season, despite guiding Chelsea into an FA Cup final against Manchester United on 19 May.

The Blues have won their last four league matches, but even if Conte’s team defeat relegation-threatened Huddersfield and Newcastle, it may not be enough for Chelsea, whose goal difference is inferior to both of their rivals.

“The situation is not in our hands,” said Conte. “Liverpool have to win the last game against Brighton and it’s the same for Tottenham. They have two games at home.

“The only way to put a bit of pressure is this, to get three points in every game. In the last month we did this.

“We won three games away, Southampton, Burnley and Swansea, and one game at home against Liverpool. We’re doing our job in the best way to put pressure on Tottenham and Liverpool,” he added.

Spurs play Newcastle on Wednesday and Leicester on Sunday at Wembley.
