A new era is set to dawn at Stamford Bridge next season as Antonio Conte takes over from Guus Hiddink when the Dutchman steps down this summer.
After sacking Jose Mourinho off the back of a horrendous title defence, Chelsea turned to their former interim manager, Hiddink to steady the ship.
Hiddink managed to do just that as the Chelsea board decided what direction they would like to take the club next season.
The club announced that Conte would take over as head coach following his duties with the Italian national team at Euro 2016.
The former Juventus manager signed a three-year contract at Stamford Bridge and will return to club management for the first time since leaving Juventus in 2014.
It is well known that Chelsea aren’t the most patience of clubs when it comes to managers, so we’re going to look at some factors that will define the Italian’s reign at Stamford Bridge, however long that will be.
