Report: Conte has growing doubts over Tottenham manager role

Antonio Conte has growing do𒊎ubts about takin⛎g over as manager of Tottenham Hotspur.

According to 𝔍, the former Internazionale manager is leaning more towards rejecting the Lilywhites.

Spurs finished a mammoth 24 points behind rꦏunaway champions Manchester City and failed to qualify for the Europa League.

Furthermore, the outfit al🌃so failed to win a trophy, the 13th consecutive season without a major honour.

As a result of their form, Jose Mourinho ꧅was sacked as head coach just days before the Carabao Cup final.

TBR View: Conte unlikely to become manager, but, Tottenham not-so heartbroken

Appointing Conte would’ve been a dream scenario for Tottenham after last season’s underperformance. The Italian is an astute coach and has brought success to each of h♛is last three clubs.

H✅is growing doꦅubts is bad news for everyone associated with the club.

T𒀰he Spurs squad is underwhelming and unlikꦿely to be overhauled due to the current financial issues.

It will take a😼 vast amount of money to create the sort of side Conte would deem sufficient to challenge for major trophies. And wi🧸th Kane failing to commit his future to the club, it adds to the headache for the Italian.

In any case, Spurꦇs should⛎ be targeting a long-term appointment as per Daniel Levy’s comments back in May.

The CEO claimed the outfit were targeting someone꧋ who playe✤d attacking football and can develop youth.

Helping youngsters come through the academy proves a long-term project. Each of Conte’s last two jobs at club-level has been two ꦫyears long. The 51-year-old doesn’t match the description of the side making the rejection slightly more bearable.
