Antonio Conte says he decided to stay at Tottenham amid uncertainty about his future earlier in the year because he believes in the club’s project.
Conte joined Spurs in November after Nuno Espirito Santo was sacked following a dreadful start to the season. The Italian’s arrival in north London was seen as a major coup for chairman Daniel Levy, but just months later his place at the club was cast into doubt.
Back in April, the 52-year-old was strongly linked to become a successor to ex-Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino at Paris Saint-Germain. Conte dismissed the reports as “lies” and “fake news” , but he openly said his long-term future at the club would depend on how ambitious it was.
