‘Winning the league next season’ – Some Spurs fans react to Conte’s official appointment

Some Tottenham Hotspur fans have been reacting on social media after the club officially confirmed the appointment of Antonio Conte as their new head coach.

The Italian has signed a contract until 2023 and replaces Nuno Espirito Santo, who was dismissed on Monday morning.

Nuno was removed after just 17 games in charge, having been appointed to succeed Jose Mourinho with ESPN claiming that a number of senior players had lost faith in the former Wolves boss.

Conte was heavily linked with a move to Tottenham during the summer but the club were said to have walked away from a deal over concerns over the former Chelsea manager’s transfer budget demands (Guardian).

His previous two-year stint in charge of Chelsea saw them win the Premier League title in 2016-17 and the FA Cup the following season.

Here is how some of the North London faithful have reacted to the news of the 52-year-old taking up the position.
