After Tottenham’s elimination in the Champions League round of 16 against AC Milan, Antonio Conte is more threatened than ever, as the Italian’s contract at the end of the season.
Strongly criticized by one of his own players, Richarlison, on his choices, the former coach of Inter and Juventus is going through a difficult period at Spurs. Despite a very honorable 4th place in the Premier League, Antonio Conte’s future at Tottenham seems to be darkening day by day, according to the revelations of the DailyMail.
In front of the media, after the elimination against Milan, the Italian had claimed to be “under contract” with the Spurs and that his future would be decided “at the end of the season”. That said, the coach had hinted that the possibility for him to leave existed, and that the English club did not necessarily have control of the file.
The list of suitors is growing
According to The TimesMauricio Pochettino, free of any contract since leaving PSG in 2022, is interested in the position, while the Argentinian has already coached Spurs from 2014 to 2019. Sky Sports confirms the information this Friday, revealing that some Spurs players would like Mauricio Pochettino to return. In this sense, the coach would be track number 1. But the ex-Parisian is far from the only one on the Spurs short list.
According to the DailyMail, Brentford coach Thomas Frank is being considered. The 49-year-old Dane is currently 9th in the Premier League. The media also evokes the case of Roberto De Zerbi, who has done a good job at Brighton (8th in PL) since his arrival at the club in September 2022. Sun confirms the name of the Italian, adding Luis Enrique, free since his departure from the Spanish selection after the 2023 World Cup, as well as the Austrian from Eintracht Frankfurt, Oliver Glasner. Finally, the English press as a whole highlights, in addition to Mauricio Pochettino, the German Thomas Tuchel, also free of any contract after his dismissal from Chelsea, in September 2022.
