The future of Chelsea coach Antonio Conte is currently under threat after poor run of results this season which has decimated their hopes of retaining their Premier League title.

Chelsea lost their last two Premier League games against Bournemouth and Watford in which many of their fans were livid considering the goals the Blues conceded.

Serious pressure is now on the neck of manager Antonio Conte in which there were reports that Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is planning to sack him at the end of the season.

Conte was rewarded with a bumper new contract last summer that runs until 2021 after guiding the Blues to the championship.

However, it is claimed Roman Abramovich would have to cough up a staggering £26.7 million in severance pay to show the former Juventus boss the door according to UK Mirror.

Earlier, NAIJ.com had reported how Chelsea coach Antonio Conte stated emphatically that he is not scared of losing his job at Stamford Bridge following the Blues' embarrassing defeat against Watford.

The Blues' defeat at Watford was their third lost in four games and their second thrashing in six days after the 3-0 humbling by Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge last week.

There are reports that Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich is now planning to sack the former Juventus coach, and Antonio Conte explained that he is not worried.
