Why Chelsea gave Victor Moses new contract – Conte

And Conte has lifted the lid on what it’s been like for him to work with the Nigeria global on a regular basis this season.

“The story [that he could leave] tells this, but I am not anxious”.

Chelsea are prepared to let Belgian forward Michy Batshuayi, who was a January target for West Ham United, leave Stamford Bridge at the end of the season.

Not that he didn’t try before.

“I just want to keep learning more about the position and keep improving”.

Italian media have been reporting about Inter asking Conte to coach them next season and are willing to pay him around $15 million a season. He is a very good player.

“We found players not to adapt, but to play in different roles compared to the past”. His education is fantastic. “I’m pleased for him, he deserves it and nobody gifted him anything”.

His regular appearances under Conte have seen him grow in confidence, setting up numerous goals and scoring four of his own in Chelsea colours. The rest was down to Moses’ hard work. He impressed in the 2-0 victory at the KCOM Stadium and that earned the Nigeria worldwide a start against champions Leicester City two weeks later.

It’s a new lease on life for the 26-year-old who has thrice been sent out on loan since joining Chelsea in 2012.

“I feel very excited”, Moses told Chelsea’s website yesterday.

“When you ask about my players, I like to repeat that the present is the most important thing”.

They continued their excellent form with a 3-1 victory over Swansea City on Saturday, Moses praised the character of the side and stated that they aren’t thinking about the table with 12 games to go.

Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has insisted that he plans to stay at Chelsea for several years and build something important, after suggestions in the Italian press that he was considering a move back to his home nation. Conte trusts in Moses and Moses trusts in Conte.
