Gary Lineker has taken to Twitter to give his reaction to Tottenham Hotspur head coach Antonio Conte speaking about Ryan Mason.
What’s the story?
Conte was recently appointed the new head coach of Tottenham.
The former Chelsea and Inter Milan manager has included Mason in his coaching staff.
The Englishman was working as Head of Development at the Tottenham Academy.
Mason went back to that role after a short spell as the first-team head coach following the sacking of Jose Mourinho.
And now Conte has included the 30-year-old in his Tottenham backroom staff.
Tottenham have posted a video on Twitter about Conte speaking about his appreciation of Mason.
As you watch below, the Italian speaks about how he went to see Mason in the hospital following his serious head injury while at Hull City.
Gary Lineker reacts
Former Tottenham striker Lineker has given his reaction to the video.
It is simple, but one that all football fans will agree with.
It must have been really hard for Mason to retire from playing prematurely.
However, the 30-year-old has reinvented himself as a coach now.
Working with a world-class manager like Conte will only help Mason develop and progress as a coach.
