Chelsea manager Antonio Conte insists that he is "not interested" in breaking Arsenal's record for most consecutive Premier League victories.

Chelsea manager Antonio Conte has insisted that he is "not interested" in breaking the Premier League record for the longest winning streak.

Chelsea have strung together a run of nine wins in a row since switching to three at the back, with this afternoon's 1-0 triumph over West Bromwich Albion seeing them climb back to the top of the Premier League table.

Arsenal currently hold the all-time record for most consecutive Premier League wins with 14, but Conte is not focusing on that landmark despite facing Sunderland, Crystal Palace, Bournemouth and Stoke City this month.

"I'm not interested in the record," he told reporters.

"I'm interested in gaining three points in every game because that means we can stay top of the table, and fight for something important."

Chelsea are the only Premier League club to have gone on a nine-match winning run on five separate occasions.
