Inter Milan's efforts to appoint Chelsea manager Antonio Conte appear to have failed
Chelsea manager Antonio Conte is angling for a bumper new deal at Stamford Bridge and hopes a league and cup double will earn him the pay rise under owner Roman Abramovich.
And reports in Italy suggest the ex-national team manager has rejected the advances of Inter Milan.
According to newspaper Corriere dello Sport, Conte has been promised a mega transfer kitty to overhaul Chelsea's squad this summer.
And that, coupled with a big-money deal for himself, appears to be enough to keep the 53-year-old grounded.
Inter have gambled on landing Conte and sacked manager Stefano Pioli earlier this week in order to pursue their top target.
