Antonio Conte has had a huge impact on Tottenham since he took the reigns, guiding the side to an unlikely top-four finish last season. It saw the Lilywhites return to the Champions League and after further investment in the playing squad, they are well-placed for back-to-back European finishes.

The 53-year-old returned for one game before he was advised to take some time off to rest up for his own health. It appears as though he could be back and coaching again before too soon, so with that said, here's the latest on Conte and his return to Tottenham.
