[ad_1] There appears to be an inevitability about Antonio Conte no longer being the Tottenham Hotspur manager when the first game of the 2023/24 season rolls around.

[ad_1] FROM TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR STADIUM – Tottenham’s last faint hopes of winning a trophy this season have slipped away. After losing 1-0 to AC Milan in the Champions League last 16, Spurs will now have to focus on a flailing Premier League campaign. They currently sit fourth to their credit, but keep finding new ways to open the door to their rivals. On Antonio Conte’s return from gallbladder surgery, Tottenham looked predictable and without ingenuity. A once well-oiled race car has rusted, the engine has given up on it.
