Chelsea find Matic replacement

Barely a day has gone since the Blues announced the departure of Nemanja Matic to Manchester United, but Conte has found the man to fill his void in midfield.

Chelsea have cashed in £40 million for Nemanja Matic, not a bad price for a footballer nearing his 29th birthday. However, it has left Antonio Conte in need of another player to complete his midfield.

The Blues already signed Tiemoue Bakayoko and Renato Sanches is set to arrive soon, but Conte wants a back-up man to call upon when needed.

Therefore, the Italian has set his sights on Leicester City midfielder and England international Danny Drinkwater. The 27-year-old knows N'Golo Kante well, having partnered with the Frenchman in the 2015/16 title-winning season.

The Foxes have no pressure to sell after Drinkwater signed a new four-year deal last summer, but Conte is fond of the Englishman and will offer a fee hard to resist.
