Tottenham news: Antonio Conte targets key backroom appointment as Everton set Richarlison deadline

Antonio Conte is hoping to follow in the footsteps of north London rivals Arsenal by bringing a new role to his backroom team at Tottenham Hotspur.

Mikel Arteta hired the Gunners' first-ever set-piece specialist in 2020 when he brought in former Brentford coach Andreas Georgson, with Conte now keen to do the same for Spurs. While the Tottenham boss is thought to have a name in mind for the role, any agreement appears to be some way off.

It comes as Everton have reportedly set a very tight deadline for Spurs to agree a fee with them for star forward Richarlison. And the Brazilian striker seems to have said his goodbyes to the Toffees as he responded to a young fan being upset at his impending departure.
