Tottenham identify first-choice target to replace Antonio Conte in 10-man shortlist

Ex- Bayern Munich boss Julian Nagelsmann is currently top of Tottenham 's 10-man shortlist to replace Antonio Conte, it's been claimed.

Conte, 53, finally parted ways with Spurs via "mutual consent" on Sunday after 16 tumultuous months at the helm, ending a week of intense speculation following his extraordinary post-match rant after Tottenham succumbed to a 3-3 draw with bottom-placed Southampton last Saturday. Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is now searching for the Italian's successor, having installed his former No.2, Cristian Stellini, as interim manager for their final 10 games of the season.

Tottenham are reported to have drawn up a shortlist containing 10 names to potentially succeed Conte, including Mauricio Pochettino and Luis Enrique, although Nagelsmann is understood to be Levy and co's priority target. According to the Daily Mail, the Spurs hierarchy want to speak to the highly rated German tactician less than a week after he was ruthlessly sacked by Bayern.
