Chelsea boss Antonio Conte targets two new fullback signings

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has plans to strengthen his fullback options.

Conte is interested in signing Michail Antonio from West Ham, says The Times.

Conte is eager to bolster his wing-back options in this month's transfer window.

And Antonio, 26, is said to have emerged as the Italian's top target at right-back, while Jonas Hector, also 26, of Cologne is apparently his preferred option on the left.

Conte believes the pair will provide competition for Victor Moses and Marcos Alonso, who have both starred for the Premier League leaders this term.
