Conte on Tottenham signing Spence: ‘The club decided to buy him’
Conte on Spence: ‘The club decided to buy him’
Antonio Conte has described Tottenham Hotspur’s new wing-back Djed Spence as a “club” signing. Spurs on Tuesday completed a move for Spence. The 21-year-old has signed a five-year contract with the club that includes an initial fee of £12.5million plus a further £7.5million in add-ons.theathletic.com
Can you point out the part where he categorically says "I didn't want Spence"?
He still gave the trf the green light.
Based on the amount he plays, it don't take genius to connect the dots. Even a stupid redneck like me can figure it out
What a fookin tackle by Emerson.
Deuterz - Got a quote for me then?
Reading between lines is easy.
A manager like Conte is clever. Won’t directly say ‘I didn’t want him’ but that quote was designed to make it clear that this wasn’t a player he wanted & its on the clubs head.
Washed his hands of it.
Royal with a goat challenge
If he'd catagorically told the club he didn't want Spence; he wouldn't be here.
Fair. He also said: ““Spence is an investment of the club,” Conte said. “The club wanted to do it. I said okay, this player is young but he showed he can become a good, important player for us.
Maybe he’s getting the Sess treatment from last year & working hard behind the scenes?
:contepray:
Got a quote for that?
LUUUUCCAAASSS
Reading between the lines if frought with the potential to be wrong.
LUCAS!!!
Harsh yellow
Conte said. “The club wanted to do it. I said okay"
