Report: Two-time title winner has admirers at Tottenham

Sergio Conceicao has admirers behind the scenes at Tottenham as reports from the suggest that Nuno Espirito Santo could lose his job.

The Portuguese manager was only appointed in the summer. After five wins and five defeats from his 10 Premier Leaܫgue games in charge and his position is precarious.

Conceicao has been building ไhis reputation with Porto. He has overseen two title-winning campaign🗹s in Portugal and has achieved a win ratio of from 233 games in charge.

Conceicao has also man🎶aged Olha🦩nense, Academica, Braga, Vitoria Guimaraes and Nantes.

Another Portuguese option might not go down too well after the Espirito Sanꦕto debacle. The style of football under Conceicao should improve, however.

Tottenham are yet to make 𒊎a decision on their current manage🐬r’s future. It is thought that the club are seriously considering a change though.

The li♛kes of Harry Kane and Son Heung-min have been stifled with Espirito Santo adopting an ultra-defensive style.

After spending several years wit🐈h Porto, it seems likely that Conceicao would fancy a crack a𒉰t the Premier League.

He would like😼ly 𒅌view the Tottenham squad as one he could work with and implement his attacking brand of football.

Conceicao could be ideal for Tottenham

At 46-years-old, the Coimbra-🅰born manager could potentially be the man to build over the next few years at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

He is a respectable manager and has contacts from a playing career that saw him play for Por♊to, Lazio, Parma and Inter Milan among other clubs.

Conceicao might not excite the To🎉ttenham fans as such. It is important supporters remain realistic, however, and the Porto boss does seem like a name that deserves to be in the mix.

Whoever gets the gig would be under pressure to perform in the role. Given the expectation levels at Porto though, working at Tottenham should be easy for the £90k-a-week Conceicao.
