Jamie Redknapp and Michael Dawson agree on the moment Antonio Conte's Tottenham tenure was over

Former Tottenham Hotspur stars Michael Dawson and Jamie Redknapp have agreed on the exact moment Antonio Conte's future at Spurs became untenable. The Italian's exit from Spurs after 16 months had been widely reported as being agreed last week and late on Sunday night the club officially announced his departure.

Following the sacking of Nuno Espirito Santo in November 2021, Conte was appointed three months after chairman Daniel Levy had tried to persuade the former Chelsea boss to take over in north London. After Jose Mourinho was sacked, Levy revealed the requirements the next Spurs manager would have to fulfill

He said: “We are acutely aware of the need to select someone whose values reflect those of our great club and return to playing football with the style for which we are known – free-flowing, attacking and entertaining – whilst continuing to embrace our desire to see young players flourish from our Academy alongside experienced talent."
