Tottenham boss Antonio Conte will not be present at Hotspur Way today (Tuesday) for training as his future at the club continues to look bleak. The Italian unleashed a ruthless barrage of criticism following Spurs' 3-3 Premier League draw against Southampton on Saturday, criticising the club, the ownership model and the players.
The Italian's brutal words resembled a man comfortable in the knowledge he will not be in north London next season, with his contract up in the summer. Spurs do hold a 12-month extension option but that being taken up now seems almost impossible.
According to a report from Daily Mail journalist Sami Mokbel, during talks on Saturday night, Conte explained to board members his comments were only aimed at the players and not the hierarchy. Despite this, the Italian and Spurs look set to part ways later this week.
