Conte’s New Army

Tottenham Hotspur is one of the most prestigious clubs in England, having featured frequently in the top four of the Premier League standings, Cup finals, and even a mildly successful adventure in European competitions – the pinnacle being the dramatic Champions League final defeat, which saw many make a fortune on betting sites UK. One can say that the Club chairman Daniel Levy took the defeat to heart when he opted to sign Mourinho before axing him, then finally landing the signature of a serial winner in Conte.

The Italian coach’s resume speaks for itself: four Serie A titles during his time at Juventus and Inter Milan, a Premier League title and FA cup in just two seasons at Stamford Bridge. With Conte’s contagious winning mentality and a resume to back it up, the Spurs faithful have new hope that the long wait for a silverware is almost over, perhaps as soon as the present season.

However, it is safe to say that Conte’s tenure in Tottenham will be anything but easy, evident in the way a few first team players like Dele Alli who have been burning hot and cold since the previous season, the injury list, and the seemingly never-ending saga of COVID-19. It’s hard to forget the summer transfer drama Harry Kane who’s the club captain went through with Man City, leaving many to doubt his commitment to the club. Who can blame Spurs fans for their growing impatience? Their club is a mirror image of their neighbor Arsenal, since moving to the new Stadium in April 2019, they have both been branded a club in transition.

Conte has a Herculean task at the wheel and, like his predecessors, anything short of silverware within the 18-month period of his contract will definitely be considered a bad investment. A few wins and a top four finish won’t suffice, given the resume of the 52-year-old former Inter Milan boss.

The stakes are high, the stage is set, the lights are on, and one might even say these conditions best soothe his character as a coach. A few matches with Conte had seen the squad looking competitive. It’s hard to doubt the certainty of the Italian’s successful tenure if he’s equipped by Levy with the perfect signings needed to jolt the team back to life.
