Premier League leader Chelsea is considering to hire her legend Frank Lampard.
Former England s representatives weeks ago ended his football adventure of being retired.
So now Lampard is free and can take a leadership position in the club.
British giant, has initially approached him a post of ambassador at the club.
It remains to be seen whether the Englishman will accept the post because he has now begun to take a license to coach.
Lampard, who made over 100 appearances for England, joined Chelsea in 2001 at the age of 23 after impressing for London rivals West Ham.
The Romford-born star played over 400 league games for the Blues in his 13 years in west London, becoming arguably the club’s all-time greatest player.
Chelsea have not failed to beat a team outside the Premier League's top six since drawing away against Swansea City in September, and Conte says avoiding complacency against lesser opponents is crucial for any team with championship aspirations.
"Honestly, in England, if you ask me before the game 'Is it an easy game?' -- my reply is always the same," he added. "There are no easy games in England. We saw a lot of examples [this season] of teams at the bottom who won and drew [against top six sides].
"It is important always to have great concentration and focus and be ready to fight and try to win, if you want to win the title. If your ambition to be top four or top six you can have highs and lows. If you want to win you must always have the same concentration and focus and know that in every game you can lose points."
Chelsea's form has established them as clear favourites to win the Premier League, and both Pep Guardiola and Arsene Wenger have publicly admitted in recent weeks that the title is the Blues' to lose, but Conte is making no such assumptions.
"Honestly, I think there are six teams very strong and can fight to win the title," he insisted. "This is the truth and we must know this.
"If we think we have nine points and we are close to the title it is a great mistake. There are 14 games to play. There are five teams, six with Chelsea who can fight until the end to win the title. It is important not to make a big mistake in this race."
