Tottenham ‘hold positive managerial talks with former Chelsea boss Antonio Conte and now have second meeting planned’

  • Antonio Conte has led Inter Milan to Serie A glory in his second season
  • His success at the club has reportedly caught the eye of Tottenham 
  • Ryan Mason is in interim charge of Spurs after the sacking of Jose Mourinho

Tottenham have reportedly held begun talks with Antonio Conte over their vacant managerial position.

The Italian has done a fine job since taking charge of Inter Milan two years ago, securing the club their first Serie A title in 11 years at the weekend.

The Nerazzurri are 13 points clear after Saturday’s win at Crotone with four games to go, ending a run of nine Juventus triumphs.

And Conte’s performance in Italy has naturally caught the eye of Spurs, who currently have Ryan Mason in charge on an interim basis following the sacking of Jose Mourinho.

Italian outlet Corriere dello Sport claim Tottenham have now moved to speak with him and he has refused to rule out the possibility of a move to north London.

However, he also also made it clear he is committed to Inter at this moment in time.

Conte will be no stranger to fans in the Premier League, having spent two seasons with Chelsea between 2016 and 2018.

He won a Premier League in his first season and an FA Cup in his second before being dismissed.
