Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy is now reportedly facing competition from Real Madrid for Antonio Conte.
Conte is in charge of Inter Milan at the moment, but Tottenham have already reportedly held talks.
A report in Corriere dello Sport this month claimed that Tottenham chairman Levy wants to appoint the former Chelsea boss as the new manager.
The report stated that Spurs have already met with the 51-year-old and and have even discussed how to improve the current squad, as covered by HITC Sport.
However, it seems that Spurs are now facing competition from Spanish giants Madrid.
La Repubblica has claimed today that Madrid – as well as Tottenham – are keen on Conte.
Madrid president Florentino Perez is reportedly looking at the Italian – described as “a great manager” by Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp in The Independent in September 2016 – if Zinedine Zidane leaves.
Conte has led Inter to the Serie A title this season, ending Juventus’s stranglehold of the Scudetto.
Tottenham are a massive club, but Madrid are a dream for any manager.
Having won the league title with Chelsea in England and conquered Italy with Juventus and Inter, the 51-year-old could now be tempted to lead Madrid to La Liga success in Spain.
