Antonio Conte claims he was JOKING about fearing the sack at Tottenham after their Champions League exit against AC Milan as he insists Daniel Levy and Co 'appreciate the work we are doing' at the club

Antonio Conte says he does not expect to be sacked by Tottenham before the end of the season.

The Italian claimed that was a possibility after Spurs were knocked out of the Champions League by AC Milan last week.

Conte's contract as Tottenham manager expires at the end of the season and the club are already sounding out potential successors.

It has reached the stage that few are expecting the former Chelsea boss to stay and some - including MailSport pundit Chris Sutton - are calling for him to leave straight away.
