There is no way back for Antonio Conte at Chelsea, with Bookmakers and public alike convinced he will be departing Stamford Bridge this summer.<\/p>\n

The Blues’ latest defeat at the hands of rivals Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend, saw them drop to eight points behind Spurs in fourth – meaning their hopes of a top-four finish are virtually over.<\/p>\n

They are now as long as they have been for a long time, at 20\/1 – somewhat bigger than Conte’s odds of him being in charge of Chelsea.<\/p>\n

“Chelsea’s season is going from bad to worse, and Conte does look resigned to his fate,” said OddsMonkey spokesman Peter Watton.<\/p>\n

“That defeat was seemingly the last straw for their top-four hopes – and his odds on him leaving, are just as bad. He is now 4\/11 to not be in charge, which is over 70% probability.<\/p>\n

“The departure of Alan Pardew at West Bromwich Albion has also impacted on him, as odds on him being the next top-flight manager are now just 7\/4.”<\/p>\n

Selected Chelsea & Conte odds<\/strong><\/p>\n

Antonio Conte not to be in charge of Chelsea next season – 4\/11
\nAntonio Conte to be next Premier League manager to leave – 7\/4
\nChelsea to finish in the top-four – 20\/1<\/p>\n
