With speculation surrounding Radja Nainggolan’s future at Roma, the Chelsea target has teased Antonio Conte and Giallorossi about where his future lies.
Nainggolan, who joined the Lupi in 2014, having impressed in Italy already with Cagliari, has been identified as a transfer target by soon-to-be Blues boss Conte.
“Conte and I talked,” Nainggolan told Belgian reporters. “He wanted me to join Juventus in the past, but I told him that I would never go there.
“Now he is trying to convince me to go to Chelsea. We had a chat and he is an intriguing person. We’ll see whether I stay at Roma”
The 28-year-old’s international teammates, Thibaut Courtois and Eden Hazard currently play at Stamford Bridge, and the midfielder admits they have been trying to lure him to London.
“[Thibaut] Courtois and [Eden] Hazard are trying to convince me to go to London with them,” he added. “We’ll see what happens. Conte is a good coach, and we saw that at Siena and Juventus where he won consistently.
“He told me what he expects of me and what kind of player I can be for him. It is important to know that a coach wants you so much.”
