The Italian is set to arrive at Stamford Bridge in the coming week to begin work ahead of the upcoming Premier League season after an impressive Euro 2016 campaign with the Azzuri.





Despite wide reports Conte was leading one of the weakest Italian sides in living memory, the new Blues boss took his side to exceptional victories against both Belgium and Spain, Conte's Italy eventually fell at the quarter final stage to a strong Germany side.





Speaking about the man he played alongside and under, Del Pierro highlighted that Italy's success was not luck, and Chelsea can look forward to a positive season under Conte.





"He’s a good guy, he loves to work a lot and if he has the chance to talk with the players in the right way and the players understand what he wants then Chelsea can have a very season and probably win the title."





Despite highlighting the strengths of his former colleague, Del Pierro was quick to outline the difficulties Conte will face in his debut season in English football.





"It’s not easy because this year the Premier League is amazing in terms of players and coaching staff but he has a chance."





In a summer of change, Pep Guardiala, along with Conte makes his bow in English football, whilst Liverpool's Jurgen Klopp begins his first full season in charge. Jose Mourinho will be looking to make an instant impact at Old Trafford.
