Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is said to be considering nine different managers as he begins his search to replace Antonio Conte.
Tottenham Hotspur has announced that Antonio Conte has left the club by mutual consent, following his recent criticisms of the club and its players. Following a disappointing tenure in charge, the 53-year-old Italian coach has been fired.
“We qualified for the Champions League in Antonio’s first season.” “We appreciate Antonio’s contribution and wish him the best of luck in the future.” According to a statement issued by the club.
Tottenham was eliminated from both the Champions League and the FA Cup in the same week earlier this month. They dropped crucial points in the race for fourth place last weekend when they conceded two goals in the final 13 minutes of their match against Southampton, despite leading 3-1 at the time.
The likes of Steve Cooper, Thomas Frank, Oliver Glasner and Ange Postecoglu have also reportedly been noted by Tottenham chiefs as they prepare to source an eventual replacement for Conte, who has seemingly managed his final game for the club after riling Levy with his post-match comments following the recent draw at Southampton.
“I see selfish players,” Conte raged. “I see players who don’t want to help one another and don’t put their hearts into it.” Why? They’re used to it because they’re used to it here. They don’t play for a reason, they don’t play under pressure, and they don’t play under stress.
“It’s simple in this way. Tottenham’s story is this: the owner has been there for 20 years and they have never won anything, but why? The club, or every manager who stays here, is solely to blame. I’ve seen the managers who were on Tottenham’s bench.”
