Antonio Conte does not want to believe that a Chinese club made a £257million offer for Cristiano Ronaldobecause he feels it would be morally wrong.
Ronaldo’s agent Jorge Mendes revealed his client could have gone to China and earned almost £100m-a-year, but instead chose to stay at Real Madrid.
Chelsea have banked £60m from Chinese club Shanghai SIPG for Oscar, while Carlos Tevez has moved to Shanghai Shenhua on a deal worth over £512,000-a-week.
Asked about the Ronaldo bid, Chelsea head coach Conte said: “I think it's an incredible story. We are talking about a lot, lot, lot of money. I don't want to trust in this.
“I don't want to believe in this. Because, I think, we are talking about an amount of money which is not right.
“I saw the last contract, the last contract with Carlos Tevez. I think we are talking about a lot of money. This type of offer is incredible and it's very difficult for the players to say ‘no’.
“But I must be honest, I think it's not right. It's not right, this. Because you must have respect for the money and then if there are these offers, this type of offer... but I don't agree, I don't agree with this situation.”
