Isn’t Conte out of contract, and shouldn’t the hierarchy at Chelsea not give any manager a contract longer than two seasons so the boom and bust cycle doesn’t keep costing them money?
They don't. His original contract was a two year contract but, unsurprisingly, he was in a good position to renegotiate it after winning the PL and so he extended it for 2 years until the end of next season.
I don't really think Abramovic cares that much about the money. If anything it probably helps him er... "process" his money and also probably helps him in terms of FFP (as contract payoffs probably don't count). I think he'll just keep doing the same until he finds a manager that sticks and doesn't lose the dressing room (the cynic in me thinks this is done on purpose to get out of what is probably a toxic atmosphere with a nice payoff and no face lost on either side.)
