Ligue 1 winner earmarked as potential Antonio Conte replacement

By Saikat -

Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte will be out of contract at the end of the season and the Italian has not signed an extension with the London club.

The 53-year-old has been linked with a return to Italy and it remains to be seen whether Tottenham can convince him to extend his stay at the London club.

Conte is undoubtedly one of the best managers in the world and his departure from Tottenham will come as a major blow.

The Premier League side have backed the Italian heavily in the transfer market so far and they will not want him to abandon the project before winning a trophy.

A report from Daily Mail claims that Mauricio Pochettino is one of the candidates earmarked as a potential replacement for the Italian manager.

Pochettino has managed at Tottenham before and he helped them challenge for the Premier League title and the Champions League trophy during his time at the club. He won the Ligue 1 title with Paris Saint-Germain before parting ways with the French outfit.

The Argentine manager has a close relationship with Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy and it remains to be seen whether the Spurs chief is willing to bring him back to the club at the end of the season.

Tottenham certainly have a talented squad at their disposal and there is no reason why they cannot challenge for the major trophies with someone like Pochettino in charge.
