Chelsea head coach Antonio Conte on Friday said their latest recruit Ross Barkley is fit to be picked up for the English Premier League (EPL) clash with Brighton on Saturday.

"Ross Barkley is in a good physical condition and will be in the squad for Chelsea's trip to Brighton," Conte said.

However, the Italian did not comment on the ongoing transfer market and said it is not right to talk about other clubs. He also pointed out that every player has his own characteristics but he is only worried about the Chelsea squad.

"As you know very well I think it's not right to talk about players in other teams," the Italian said.

 

"If I plan something, I think you are the first to know the news. If something happens, you are the first to know the news.

"Every striker has their own characteristics and I'm happy to work with my players.

"I don't want to talk about other players," Conte said.
