Antonio Conte Sacked, Runs Out Of Tottenham Job After Rant

Antonio Conte has been sacked by Tottenham Hotspur following an emotional rant on his team

Conte was out of contract at the end of the season but Spurs have decided to part ways with 10 games of the campaign remaining following the Italian’s extraordinary outburst in the aftermath of the 3-3 draw against Southampton last weekend.

Conte attacked his own players and questioned Tottenham’s mentality in an astonishing 10-minute rant, which was the latest of a series of incidents in which the manager criticised Spurs in public during his spell at the club.

Spurs said in a statement late on Sunday night: “We can announce that Head Coach Antonio Conte has left the Club by mutual agreement. We achieved Champions League qualification in Antonio’s first season at the Club. We thank Antonio for his contribution and wish him well for the future.”

Conte’s assistant Cristian Stellini, who took charge of the team while the manager was recovering from gallbladder surgery in recent weeks, will take charge until the end of the season, assisted by former Spurs midfielder and current coach Ryan Mason.

Tottenham were condemned to a 15th consecutive season without a trophy after their dismal Champions League exit to AC Milan followed defeat to Sheffield United in the FA Cup, but Conte had been allowed to try and steer Spurs towards the top four.

The development in Tottenham comes after Antonio Conte was sacked from his earlier premiership job at Chelsea in 2018.
