After directing most of his attacks to either Arsene Wenger or Pep Guardiola, José Mourinho has decided to battle a new enemy: Antonio Conte.
Needless to say, the relationship between both tactician hasn't been the best ever since Chelsea blasted Manchester United last season. Accusations have flown between both of them, but Mourinho's latest attack will surely be a turning point in their rivalry.
Speaking in the post-match press conference, Mourinho started his attack on Conte due to the Italian's words about Mou's mental health. Earlier this week, Conte aimed a dig at Mourinho, calling him a senile dementia patient. Mourinho didn't hold back and recalled a shameful incident in which Conte was involved years ago.
"I don't need Chelsea's coach to remember my past mistakes or maybe saying something about those I'll make in the future. He can accuse me of that, but he'll never be able to say that I had something to do with a match-fixing scheme," Mourinho said.
The Special One recalled a 2011 incident involving Conte when he was Siena's coach. The Italian boss was handed a 10-month ban for fixing a couple of games for the black-and-white side between 2010 and 2011.
Antonio Conte is yet to make a statement on this matter, but we can only hint that things will escalate even further between the two coaches.
