Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has no issues if players celebrate hard at Christmas

Antonio Conte

Antonio Conte will trust the professionalism of his Chelsea players if they decide to organise a Christmas party. It has become standard practice for most football clubs to allow their players to let their hair down for a Christmas get together.

"I'm sure I have great professionals in my players," he said. "It's important to celebrate Christmas, yes, in the right way. Because, then, the next day we will play against Bournemouth, a tough game. But I think that Christmas is right to celebrate with your family."
