Antonio Conte was again absent from Tottenham training on Friday and it remains unclear if or when he will return to the club following his explosive rant in the aftermath of last weekend’s draw against Southampton.
Conte flew back to his native Italy the day after watching his side surrender a two-goal lead in the final quarter-of-an-hour at St. Mary’s, having afterwards labelled his players “selfish” and aimed veiled criticism at both the culture and ownership of the club.
