“Conte has no contact with PSG… I only think of Tottenham 4th.”


British media to decide where to go after season ends

It is expected that Antonio Conte (pictured), manager of Tottenham Hotspur in the English Premier League (EPL) will decide where to go after the season ends.

On the night of the 25th (Korean time), the British media The Telegraph said, “Conte has not contacted Paris Saint-Germain (France). We will discuss plans to sign players with him.”

Tottenham are 5th in the Premier League this season with 18 wins, 4 draws and 11 losses (58 points), and are 2 points behind 4th place Arsenal (19 wins, 3 draws, 11 losses, 60 points). In the EPL, 1st to 4th places will be given a place in the UEFA Champions League next season.

Conte signed a contract with Tottenham until June 2023. The reason Conte’s contract with Tottenham Hotspur and his future career is mentioned even though the season has not ended is because his position as the Paris manager is in jeopardy.

Paris won the French Ligue 1 this season, but plans to break up with manager Mauricio Pochettino due to a sluggish Champions League (excluded in the round of 16). Paris is looking for a new manager, and according to France’s Le Parisien and Italian Football Italy, Conte proposed a two-year contract to Paris.
