Antonio Conte starts second legal case against Chelsea

Inter Milan boss Antonio Conte is taking further legal action against former club Chelsea despite already being given a £9million payout, according to The Times. The bitter row between Conte and the Blues is rumbling on some 13 months. Report claims, Conte was the claimant in a preliminary hearing held at the Central London Employment Tribunal last Friday. He is believed to have brought a statutory claim at an Employment Tribunal against Chelsea, with a verdict expected next month. A three-person panel ruled in April that Chelsea should pay Conte one year's salary in compensation after failing to agree on a severance package following his sacking. They add that claims of unfair dismissal are capped at £60,000 so his motives are "unlikely to be purely financial". The club have the right to appeal against the tribunal's verdict by taking their case to the High Court but are yet to do so.
