The article claims that Conte is interested in the manager position at the north London club after recently leaving Inter.

This post then quickly grabbed the attention of a lot of Tottenham supporters who were not shy in sharing their reactions to this latest claim.

So, what did these Spurs fans have to say in response to this latest update about Antonio Conte?

“WOW”

@Spurzinho

“Please”

@iitsJxsh

“This is what we need.”

@JeanetteeJensen

“YESSSSSSSS”

@LewisTHFC_

“Yes! This is the kind of calibre of manager we want at Tottenham. Conte or Poch not Potter and Martinez”

@Pops2016739539

“I remember the times when Scott Parker was apparently the only one interested, we are massive”

Looking at the replies to this post, it seems that these Spurs fans are over the moon to hear that Conte is reportedly interested in taking the reins at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as their next permanent manager.

With the 51-year-old already having experience of winning trophies in England when he delivered a Premier League title and FA Cup with Chelsea in addition to recently winning the Serie A title with Inter and the titles he won at Juventus, it’s easy to see why these Tottenham fans would love to see a serial winner such as Conte take charge of their team.

Who would you rather see as Tottenham's new manager?

However, with it being recently reported that the club have made contact with former Lilywhites manager Mauricio Pochettino over a possible return to north London, this could potentially scupper Conte’s chances of getting the job if he really wants it.

Other recent reports have suggested Conte is not a candidate for the role, but perhaps the events of the past few days could change the course of Tottenham’s manager search further down the line.
