Tottenham Hotspur will be looking to build on their top four finish in the coming season. One major part of that will be keeping Antonio Conte at the club. According to Fabrizio Romano there are those within Tottenham that are confident Antonio Conte will remain as manager of the team. Romano states: “Tottenham sources are still confident that Antonio Conte will continue as manager, they want him to stay. Talks on targets, outgoings and contracts including Harry Kane….Ivan Perisić, in the list as potential target waiting for his decision.”
Antonio Conte Likely Continuing as Tottenham Hotspur Manager
Appeasement
Based on Romano’s report the club are willing to work with Conte and get him what he wants in order to extend his spell as head coach. As mentioned, retaining the services of Harry Kane is a massive point of contention for Conte. Based on recent reports, Harry Kane is happy to stay at the club which will no doubt sway Conte. Another target named by Romano is Inter Milan’s Ivan Perisic who is reportedly courting interest from Tottenham as well as Conte’s old club Chelsea. With Chelsea still under sanctions the door is open for Tottenham to act fast and snap up the midfielder to further bolster their offer to Conte.
Onward and Upward
Tottenham Hotspur are desperate to keep hold of Conte after the Italian worked wonders and got the club into the top four. Since taking over the side in November of 2021 Conte has been in charge of 36 games, winning 21 of those. Conte is also a proven winner having already captured the Premier League title with Chelsea and won the Serie A multiple times with Juventus as well as once with Inter Milan. If Tottenham want to turn their top four finish into a sustained title push then they will need the talents of Conte at the helm, which the club is no doubt aware of based on their desire to extend his stint as manager.
