Conte, Hazard, Courtois convincing Nainggolan to join Chelsea

To leave or not to leave: that is likely to be the question constantly nagging at the back of Radja Nainggolan’s mind as the still- AS Roma midfielder trains with the Belgium national squad during their preparations for the European Championships next week.

At the very least, Antonio Conte seems to  have already made an effort to convince Nainggolan to come to Chelsea for next season, with the player admitting a meeting with the new Chelsea manager. And he’s not the only one, as apparently our own  Eden Hazard and Thibaut Courtois have been in Nainggolan’s ear as well.  But the midfielder wants to remain focused on the task at hand instead of thinking about transfer dealings.

Maybe if he had agreed already and not played hard to get, he wouldn’t have to worry about distractions!

In any case, we’re clearly doing our best in to woo Nainggolan, both on the financial and the personal front.  We shall how effective it’s all been soon, hopefully, though probably not until after the Euros are done in a month’s time.
