Antonio Conte could have a Tottenham Hotspur mutiny on his hands after his extraordinary rant.
The Italian manager erupted into a fit of rage after Spurs let a 3-1 lead slip to draw 3-3 against Southampton. Conte raged at his players, the Tottenham board, and the mentality of the club as a whole over the course of a jaw-dropping four and a half minute rant in his post-match press conference.
The Italian’s future at the club has been extremely uncertain, due to the fact his contract is up at the end of the season. But in the wake of the outburst, many players within his ranks are reportedly hoping he will be let go by the club before that point.
Reports from The Sun suggest Spurs players believe Conte could be sacked before their next Premier League match against Everton on April 3. The majority of Conte’s squad has departed the club for the international break, linking up with their respective nations.
This time period will be pivotal, if the former Chelsea and Real Madrid manager remains at the club. As well as his players, the fiery Italian also appeared to hit out at Spurs owner Joe Lewis and club chairman Daniel Levy.
