Sarri changes to big rules that Conte had put in place

Maurizio Sarri has wasted no time in making his mark at Chelsea following his arrival from Napoli.

The Telegraph reports that the Italian has axed two huge rules that were put in place by former head coach Antonio Conte.

The squad will no longer need to meet at hotels a day before a game, a routine that Conte was very keen to use throughout his tenure at Stamford Bridge.

The Chelsea Harbour hotel was used the evening prior to a match at Stamford Bridge, but the players will now be allowed to stay at home with their families and instead report for the match on the day of the game.

The Italian is also loosening the grip on the food available for the players at the club’s training ground.

The latter was one of the bigger changes made by Conte, who was keen to keep the player’s nutrition simple and strict.
