Conte Promises Attractive Football To Tottenham Fans

The 52-year-old Italian was appointed as the club’s new manager on Tuesday on an initial 18-month contract, replacing Nuno Esperito Santo.

Tottenham are still searching for their first trophy since 2008 and in Conte, they have found themselves a serial winner.

Conte's appointment marks a return to England where he won the Premier League and FA Cup in a two-year stint at Chelsea.

He also has four Serie A titles to his name as a manager; three with Juventus and one with Inter Milan last season.

"To be Tottenham manager is a great pleasure, a great honour," he told the club's official website. "Now I want to repay this trust.

“My coaching philosophy is very simple: to play good football and attractive football for our fans, with passion. To have a stable team, not up and down.

"The fans deserve to have a competitive team with a will to fight. I'll do everything to deserve their support."

He added: "Tottenham are an important club in England and around the world. The stadium and training ground are wonderful.

"The club and Daniel Levy wanted me strongly. This is a good opportunity, an honour to accept and become the manager.

"I have seen on Tuesday the training ground and I want to start work. I arrive at a top club.

"These situations push you and increase the desire to do something important for the fans of this club."

Conte’s first game in charge of Tottenham will be against Vitesse in the Europa Conference League on Thursday.
