CHELSEA winger Pedro has talked up the chances of Antonio Conte being replaced by Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic.


The play-off victors are preparing for their return to the Premier League at the end of the summer.
But Jokanovic has been heavily backed to make the short trip across west London to Stamford Bridge should Conte be relieved of his duties in the coming months.


And Pedro seems more than happy with the idea of the Serb managing at Chelsea next season.
“We know there might be some changes," he told Spanish radio Cadena Ser.
"We know he [Jokanovic] is a great manager.”
I'm happy because it's always difficult to win trophies in England

Pedro was left out of Spain's squad for the World Cup in Russia this month.
But the 30-year-old admits he is happy to stay at Chelsea next term.
"I'm very comfortable with my team-mates and, in football terms I'm very happy for having won the Premier League and the FA Cup in three years. I'm happy because it's always difficult to win trophies in England," he added.


"I'm enjoying my holidays right now, getting some rest and spending time with family, and then start the new season in the best way."
Conte has reportedly turned down an offer from Real Madrid this week as he battles to save his job in west London.
The Italian is fully expected to leave this summer.
However, Chelsea are seemingly unwilling to pay Conte's £9m severance demand.
