In a shocking turn of events, Tottenham have sacked Nuno Espirito Santo after their 3-0 humiliation at the hands of Manchester United after less than 5 months in charge of the London faithful.
While it looked like Ole might have won ‘El Sackico’, Tottenham’s next decision could ultimately prove costly to the Red Devils.
Tottenham are in advanced negotiations with recent Serie A winner Antonio Conte, who previously won the Premier League with Chelsea in 2017.
It is also ironic in the sense that Tottenham approached the Italian just three months ago before they hired Nuno, and the fact that they re-approached Conte again in such a short timeframe would be rather uncommon in the footballing world.
Conte will sign on a two year deal, with speculations that there would be an option to extend his tenure by an extra year. Manchester United fans would feel the most infuriated by his appointment, considering they recently lost 5-0 to their arch rivals and Conte apparantly being open to taking the helm at Old Trafford had Solksjaer been sacked.
It makes the league even more competitive with Tottenham joining the top 4 race, and Manchester United could be the ones making the way knowing their inconsistency.
