After just four months in the post, Nuno Espirito Santo was fired by Tottenham on Monday. Now there are many indications that Antonio Conte will take over as the new head coach of the London club soon.
Consistent information in the British media is that Tottenham are already in advanced negotiations with Conte, and according to credible ESPN, the Italian head coach is expected to fly to London already on Monday afternoon to sign for the club.
Antonio Conte was rumored to be on his way to Spurs already this summer, but then the Italian will have left the negotiations after he was not promised control of the club’s business in the transfer market. Tottenham then chose to hire Nuno Espirito Santo instead.
According to the information, Tottenham have offered Conte a contract for the 2023 season, which he is said to be prepared to accept.
Conte coached Chelsea between 2016-2018 and won as recently as last year Scudetton in Serie A with Inter.
