Antonio Conte’s men were not allowed to enter the hotel through the front entrance with growing concerns English teams could be targeted in an attack.
German side Borussia Dortmund were the victims of an attack midweek as there was a handful of explosions by the team bus as they travelled to Signal Iduna Park to face Monaco in the Champions League quarter-final.
Centre-back Marc Bartra was injured in the incident where he suffered a broken wrist after being hit by fragments after the window was smashed.
