Antonio Conte could stay at Tottenham Hotspur for the long term according to his assistant head coach Cristian Stellini.
The Spurs boss has been coy about his future when asked in recent weeks, with his contract ending at the conclusion of this season but with the north London club holding an option to extend his deal by a further 12 months. Tottenham are keen to hand Conte a new longer term deal but the Italian has suggested that he needs to be convinced by what lies for the club and whether their ambitions match his.
After hearing of the death of his former Juventus team-mate and friend Gianluca Vialli, Conte was too upset to speak to the media ahead of the FA Cup third round tie against Portsmouth and instead Stellini stepped in.
