Antonio Conte insists he want to see out his contract with Chelsea but claims he would have ‘several different scenarios’ if the club decide to sack him at the end of the season.

The Italian has been under pressure in recent weeks as Chelsea sit 19 points behind Manchester City in the Premier League table, although the tension has eased after a convincing win over Hull City in the FA Cup and a 1-1 draw with Barcelona in the Champions League.

Conte has a contract with Chelsea until June 2019, although reports have claimed that Roman Abramovich is already lining up former Barcelona boss Luis Enrique.

But Conte admits if a change were to happen, he would have options to move to another club.

‘In 14 years, Chelsea have changed coach ten times, so they do have a tendency to chop and change here,’ Conte told Conte told Mediaset Premium.

‘The media also plays on this habit the moment there are negative results.

‘They were already writing headlines about my dismissal after the opening game against Burnley.

‘It’s no problem for me, in fact I really like pressure. I just hope it doesn’t affect the players.

‘I said very clearly, I have a contract to 2019. I intend to respect it.

‘After that, anything can happen in football. I am happy at Chelsea, but both parties need to be happy.

‘In our line of work, we always have a bag packed.

‘My intention is to remain here, but if something were to change, there would be several different scenarios opening up.’
