Chelsea boss Conte: My heart is always in Italy...

Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has dropped a big hint he'd be open to returning to Italy.

Former Juventus coach Conte hosted comedians Pio and Amedeo, who on their Italia 1 show 'Emigratis' travel the world asking famous Italian emigres for food and shelter.

“It took me six months to get the English to appreciate me and then you two come along…" he joked.

When asked if he was happy living in London, Conte seemed unconvinced. “Well…"

Would he return to Italy?

“Yes. My heart is always in Italy."

But nobody there can afford your wages.

“Haven't the new owners come in now?"
