Conte wants Cudicini on Chelsea coaching staff

Incoming Chelsea manager Antonio Conte reportedly wants Carlo Cudicini to join his backroom staff at Stamford Bridge.

GianlucaDiMarzio.com is reporting that current Italy boss Conte is eager to add the former goalkeeper to his coaching ranks when he arrives in West London after Euro2016.

Cudicini, 42, is currently an ambassador at Chelsea but is wanted on a full-time basis as the club's new keeping coach.

Conte reportedly failed to bring all the coaches he wanted to Chelsea and is now seeking the services of Cudicini who won two Premier League titles, two FA Cups and two League Cups with the Blues between 1999 and 2009.
