Antonio Conte’s departure from Tottenham earlier this year was far from amicable, and the Italian coach seems to have taken a subtle swipe at his former club with his latest comments. The 54-year-old was sacked as Spurs boss in March after a scathing rant about the club following a 3-3 Premier League draw with Southampton. Conte criticized Tottenham’s lack of success over the past two decades, implying that it was the club’s fault or the fault of every manager who had been there.
Since his departure, Conte has been out of work and has revealed that he is prioritizing spending time with his family. However, in addition to this, he has also hinted at his desire to return to coaching with a team that has recently achieved success. This statement can be seen as a subtle dig at Tottenham, suggesting that he wants to work with a club that has a recent history of winning trophies.
Despite being linked with the vacant Napoli job, the Serie A champions have opted to stick with their current manager, Rudi Garcia. Conte’s future remains uncertain, but one thing is clear – Spurs fans do not have any longing for his return.
