Michael Dawson has tipped Antonio Conte to lead Tottenham Hotspur on another long run in the Champions League and start to push Manchester City and Liverpool in the Premier League.
Conte is set to remain in charge of Spurs next season and the club's owners ENIC have overseen a £150m cash injection into the coffers, with the vast majority set to go towards transfers this summer to build a much stronger squad. After watching Conte lead Spurs to fourth place in the Premier League and a return to Champions League football, former Tottenham defender Dawson believes next season will bring big things for the team as they look to close in on the top two.
"They can go on a great Champions League run. You look back to 2019 when they got to the final, no-one expected that. It was an incredible journey, so many ups and downs. Cup competitions are fine margins, I know how hard it is to win that. We’ve seen it with other teams this season where you can be in control and then five minutes of madness in football and it changes," said in an interview with William Hill.
