Ghanaian football star Richmond
Boakye has sent an emotional message
to Chelsea coach Antonio Conte ahead of
the January 2018 transfer window.
The striker worked under the Italian
tactician during his reign at Italian club
Juventus, and would not mind to have a
reunion with his former boss at
Stamford Bridge.
Since joining Serbian club Red Star
Belgrade, the 24-year-old forward has
been impressive for the club scoring 34
goals in 42 games.
Boakye told Italian outlet
TuttoMercatoWeb: “If Antonio Conte
wants to sign me then I would be
delighted to play for him once again.
“He wanted to sign me, and he brought
me to Juventus. To my mind he is a great
manager, and I will always be grateful to
him.
“I remember going out on loan to Elche
in Spain as there was no space for me in
the Juventus first team.
“He rang me to give me a morale boost
and remind me of my qualities. For a lad
of 19 that was a real pleasure,”
Richmond Boakye stated.
