Antonio Conte compared to Sir Alex Ferguson as Tottenham tipped to overtake Chelsea

Antonio Conte has had a major impact on Tottenham, since his arrival last November. Spurs brought in Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur during the January window and the impact they had on their new side was more than anyone could have hoped for.

Strengthening Conte's squad has already begun, before the summer window has even opened, with the signing of Ivan Perisic confirmed on Tuesday. The Italian wants at least six new arrivals this summer and the Croatian is a good start, to increase the size of the squad and add quality.

The biggest achievement for Spurs and the 52-year-old last season was their fourth place finish in the Premier League. The Lilywhites managed to knock Arsenal out of the top four and secure a place in the Champions League next season, providing the club with a boost and making them more attractive for potential new arrivals.
