Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has revealed plans to purchase a house in Italy with his bonus for winning the Premier League.
Conte and his players lifted the trophy following Sunday’s 5-1 win against bottom club Sunderland, which could saw the Blues set a new record of 30 wins in a season.

The former Italy coach seemed keen to play down the size of his financial reward but, judging by his plans for the money, it is a substantial sum.
“Is mine a good bonus? It depends which way you want to see it,” he said. “I think maybe I will use it to buy a house in Italy.
“In Lecce I have my parents and, for sure, I hope to spend a bit of time there on my holidays, to stay in Turin also.
“It’s an opportunity because, in the last summer, I had no chance to have a holiday because we started with Chelsea after three days from the Euros.
“It will be a very calm holiday this summer. I’ll spend a few days with my parents and in the place I was born.”
