Tottenham appoint ex-Chelsea manager Conte following Nuno sacking

Antonio Conte is back in Premier League management at Tottenham, with Spurs confirming the Italian’s appointment as successor to Nuno Espirito Santo on an initial 18-month contract that includes an extension option.

Nuno only took the reins in north London back in June, but he lasted just four months before pressure from the disillusioned fan base led to another change being made.

Conte, who met his new squad for the first time on Tuesday morning, returns to English football three years on from a stint at Chelsea that delivered top-flight title glory and an FA Cup triumph.
