Nuno Espirito Santo, former Portuguese coach of Wolverhampton, was recently sacked and relieved of his duties as boss of Tottenham due to lack of good results. His last game was when he led his players against Manchester United and lost 0-3 at home.
The Premier League side, led by Daniel Levy and Fabio Paratici (the latter is the former sporting director of Juventus) have moved swiftly and decided to appoint Italian experienced manager: Antonio Conte who won the Italian league trophy last season with Inter.
The former Bianconeri and Nerazzurri tactician will soon be taking over Nuno Espirito Santo's vacant position. A deal should be finalised in the next few hours. The 52-year-old Italian, however, is already thinking of ways to improve the squad which he is set to inherit.
Antonio Conte has two targets in mind...
According to what is reported by Calciomercato.com's journalist Daniele Longo, The Spurs new manager has in his shortlist Dusan Vlahovic of Fiorentina and AC Milan's defensive midfield star Franck Kessié.
The Ivorian player has a contract with the Rossoneri which is set to expire at the end of the season. It is normal for a player of his skills and abilities to attract important potential suitors.
