So the wording of that makes it seem like it is a 2 year contract, not an extension. Just a contract with new terms, but same length. Can anybody confirm?

Yes I confirm that.

My bad, you guys are right, it's not an extension, it's more of a renegotiation of the last 2 years he had left on his contract.... weird.

Yeeeesssssss!!!!!!!

Now I can breathe asigh of relief... At least if we're suffering in signing players because of the stadium, we still have Conte who is a serial league winner and uses average players like vucinic, llorente, asamoah, matri, Moses, and co to win against the best league teams.

I hope now the cry babies will stop the stupid talk about Conte leaving. 

About the contract, it seems the club learned the lesson. Mourinho contract extension was 100% disaster. He had 2 more years in his contract, then he was given another 2 years because of the PL trophy, only to get sacked months later.

I wonder why didn't increase his salary AND extend his contract though... I also wonder which party was reluctant to extend, or maybe both

Right, give him a 4 years extension only to sack him with 2 or 3 years left in his contract.

Hopefully he only signed it after assurances that his transfer targets are secured. Would be pretty shitty of the club announced this now as damage control if we fail to sign anyone else of note.

If I was CFC, I would have tacked on an extra year... He's one of, if not the, most sought after manager in the world at the moment. As things stand, we are scheduled to have another round of nail biting negotiations next summer when he will only have one year left on his contract

Pretty sure, next summer there will be a talk about another pay rise deal along with an extension, if we have a successful season this year. It's Conte strategy, lol.

easy man... roman doesn't want to pay too much when he will sack him...

[mccg 1,528]

Yeah no big contract , we our not good at long relationships...at least da board have learnt something over the millions and years, has anybody that info how much we have paid off managers the Roman era?
