[골닷컴] Reporter Dong-Ho Kim = Tottenham Hotspur have a chance to renew their contract with manager Antonio Conte. Tottenham could renew their contract with Conte if they so desire.
Recently, there has been talk of Conte taking over at Juventus. He is refusing to renew his contract with Tottenham and is about to leave for Juventus, which is faltering under Allegri. Italian coach Conte has already been in charge of Juventus for three years from 2011. It is a stage familiar to Conte since he also commanded the Italian national team and Inter Milan.
Conte’s partnership with Tottenham will end in the summer of 2023. There is less than one year left until the end of the contract. However, there is no news of a contract renewal. Conte wants to invest heavily in the squad. He often expressed his displeasure with the management at press conferences. These reasons overlap and it is speculated that the renewal of the contract is sluggish.
However, it was confirmed that the hilt of the contract renewal was held by Tottenham. England’s ‘Football London’ reported on the 22nd (Korean time) that “Tottenham have the option to extend Conte’s contract at any time.”
“Previously, both sides had the option to agree to an extension. But for now, Tottenham have the option and they can renew their contract at any time.”
According to Football London, Conte, who had been dissatisfied with Tottenham until last season, has completely settled with the team. In collaboration with general manager Fabio Paratici, who is from Italy, such as Conte, he quickly signed seven players ahead of this season. Of course, I wanted more reinforcement, but I think that’s enough.
Conte is trying to plant a ‘winning mentality’ at Tottenham. He has won league titles at Inter Milan and Chelsea. Tottenham are also trying to make a team that can challenge for the title. ‘Football London’ predicted that “It will be a long-term project to make Tottenham into a team that beats Spurs.” “If Tottenham continue on their current path, Conte will remain part of their long-term future plans. Heung-Min Son and Kane have a strong bond with Conte and Tottenham know the importance of Conte.”
Conte took over at Tottenham last season and moved the crisis-ridden Tottenham to fourth place. Under the influence of Conte, Tottenham returned to the Champions League stage after three seasons. This season, they are still unbeaten in the league and are in third place.
