Conte grabs Chelsea and Tottenham target for full-time chat after Napoli 1-0 Lecce
Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur have made approaches for Inter Milan defender Alessandro Bastoni in the past - and Antonio Conte has reportedly held full talks about a potential summer move with the Italy international.
Tottenham boss Antonio Conte has had full talks with Alessandro Bastoni - with Chelsea also keen on the Inter Milan defender.
Conte is a known admirer of Bastoni, having worked with the 23-year-old at Inter Milan.
Bastoni has been a key player for Inter Milan this season, making 29 appearances in all competitions.
Conte is said to be keen on adding Bastoni to his Chelsea squad.
The Blues are in need of defensive reinforcements, with Thiago Silva and Cesar Azpilicueta both in the twilight of their careers.
Bastoni would be a long-term solution for Chelsea, and he would also add some much-needed depth to the squad.
Chelsea are not the only club interested in Bastoni, with Tottenham also keen on the defender.
Tottenham boss Antonio Conte is a big fan of Bastoni, and he is thought to be keen on bringing the defender to north London.
Tottenham are in need of a new centre-back, with Davinson Sanchez and Clement Lenglet both failing to impress this season.
Bastoni is a highly-rated defender, and he would be a valuable addition to either Chelsea or Tottenham.
The 23-year-old is a left-footed centre-back, who is comfortable playing in a back three or a back four.
Bastoni is also a good passer of the ball, and he is comfortable bringing the ball out from the back.
