Tottenham boss Antonio Conte leaves after mutual agreement (ESPN Australia)

Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte is leaving by mutual consent following a postmatch rant on March 18 in which he was critical of the team.

Antonio Conte SACKED by Tottenham after savage rant at Daniel ... (Goal.com)

Antonio Conte has been sacked as manager of Tottenham following his stunning rant at owner Daniel Levy and the club's trophy record.

The Spurs chairman added: “We have 10 Premier League games remaining and we have a fight on our hands for a Champions League place. THE BIGGER PICTURE: Former Juventus, Chelsea and Italy boss Conte took in 76 games as manager of Spurs, with 41 victories collected along the way while suffering 23 defeats. We achieved Champions League qualification in Antonio’s first season at the Club. The announcement also came with a short message from Levy, who asked supporters to get behind the team as they seek to finish the campaign on a positive note. He later went on to add: “It is easy in this way [playing without pressure or importance]. The decision has been taken to part ways before the 2022-23 campaign comes to a close, with it determined that there was [no way a positive working relationship in north London could continue](https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/tottenham-expected-sack-antonio-conte-daniel-levy-takes-action-following-savage-southampton-rant/bltc9a44bb4a0cf6a5c).

Conte tore into his players after the 3-3 draw at Southampton on the Saturday before last, labelling them “selfish” and blaming them for the club’s trophy drought. Spurs had wanted Nagelsmann in 2021 after they dismissed José Mourinho but he was set on going to Bayern. Conte’s long-time assistant, Cristian Stellini, will be acting head coach for the remainder of the season, with Ryan Mason as his assistant.

Antonio Conte sacked: Tottenham undergo deja vu as Italian's exit ... (Sky Sports)

Tottenham have sacked Antonio Conte as Daniel Levy changes manager for the fourth time in four years; Cristian Stellini has been placed in charge of Spurs ...

In the weeks after Mourinho's exit, Kane reportedly informed Spurs of his desire to leave the club in a bombshell revelation. However, Kane is yet to sign a contract extension at the club and his deal still expires in 2024. Conte, meanwhile, guided his Spurs side to fourth at the time of his sacking, but that position is very much under threat given all of Newcastle, Liverpool and Brighton behind them have multiple games in hand. Conte's outburst after Spurs threw away a 3-1 lead at Southampton to draw 3-3 dominated the major headlines. Kane, meanwhile, will be aware this could be his last chance to seek silverware elsewhere. Mourinho was let go on April 19 2021, just days before the Carabao Cup final against Manchester City and with six games of the Premier League season to go. "I'm not used to seeing this type of situation," he added. Tottenham face the dilemma of cashing in on Kane or risk losing him for nothing if a new contract cannot be agreed. In 2021 it was Ryan Mason, this time the former Spurs midfielder will act as assistant to Conte's former assistant Cristian Stellini. Defeats to Manchester United, Liverpool and Newcastle would follow before the World Cup. In fact, you could copy the entire Mourinho scenario and paste it into this season... It all feels a bit too familiar for Tottenham supporters.

A lot of anger but no trophies – how Antonio Conte's Spurs reign ... (The Guardian)

Tottenham fans do not expect silverware but they do demand progress, excitement and unity. This is where Antonio Conte failed.

The Italian would live his usual downside – the acrimony, the fraying of relationships – and, in the end, it was the negatives that were the greater takeaway. It was a calculated move to get more out of the players; with Conte, it always is. [loss of three good friends](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/jan/06/antonio-conte-mourns-another-friend-with-death-of-gianluca-vialli) – the Spurs fitness coach, Gian Piero Ventrone, then Sinisa Mihajlovic and Gianluca Vialli – which saw him question his work-life balance, especially the distance to his wife and daughter in Italy. [he could walk out if he did not get what he wanted](https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/feb/17/antonio-conte-fears-tottenham-squad-weaker-after-january-transfers) in the January 2022 window. Conte wants finished article additions, experienced players to make an immediate impact and that also explains his indifference towards the academy, where morale was on the floor. At first, it was possible to detect a quasi-religious zeal among the players. This was the basis of the needed mentality. And that has not been the case with other managers of the Levy era. He offered the impression that he understood two kinds of love. The angst and impatience within the fanbase over the lack of trophies that affects the players? Or the players’ inability to cope with the pressure and win trophies that fires the angst and impatience? There came to be an unhealthy amount of reputation future-proofing from Conte, an inversion of the old break-up line.

Who is Cristian Stellini? Tottenham's new interim manager after ... (Sporting News AU)

Tottenham have named Cristian Stellini as their interim manager after Antonio Conte left the club, and they now search for a new permanent boss.

"The events of the last month have deeply affected me," a statement from Stellini read. Stellini's assistant manager will be Ryan Mason, the former Tottenham player who was forced to retire in 2018 after complications and risks from a nasty head injury suffered in a clash of heads with Gary Cahill. Mason is just 31 years old and has been with the Tottenham coaching staff since his retirement in 2018. I therefore tend my irrevocable resignation as technical assistant at Juventus." He was later handed a two-and-a-half year suspension from all football activities. ⚪️— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano)

Spurs focus on saving season after Conte departure (FRANCE 24)

Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy admits the Premier League club have a "fight" on their hands as they scramble to save their season after Antonio Conte's ...

"We all need to pull together. He averaged 1.88 points per game in the Premier League with Spurs, the second-highest figure for any manager of the club with a minimum of 38 games in charge. The 53-year-old's contract was set to expire at the end of the season and he had remained coy over the prospect of extending his stay in north London. "We have 10 Premier League games remaining and we have a fight on our hands for a Champions League place," Levy said in a club statement issued late on Sunday. With the club out of all cup competitions, at least Stellini can afford to put all of his eggs in one basket. But Sunday's divorce by "mutual agreement", with just 10 Premier League games remaining, is a gamble by the Spurs hierarchy, who are desperate to secure a place in the lucrative Champions League next season.

Conte leaves with Tottenham in fourth place in the Premier League and still well-placed to challenge for a top-four finish and qualify for the Champions League.

"We have 10 Premier League games remaining and we have a fight on our hands for a Champions League place," chairman Daniel Levy said in the statement. The writing had been on the wall since last weekend after Conte's furious reaction to a 3-3 draw with Southampton in the Premier League — after which he lambasted his players.

How chilling claim and $636m circus proves Spurs are stuck in Groundhog Day once again.

Are you going to invest in players?’” [The Telegraph’s ](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2023/03/21/next-tottenham-manager-candidates-express-similar-concerns-antonio/) [Matt Law,](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2023/03/21/next-tottenham-manager-candidates-express-similar-concerns-antonio/) “there is a feeling outside the club that Conte over-achieved in his first season at Spurs by clinching Champions League qualification and that this campaign is more reflective of the level of the squad and the ambition of the club.” But a manager of similar ilk to Mourinho or Conte means Spurs are very much win-now, boom-or-bust in the pursuit of silverware. The defeat to the Clarets prompted a “frustrated” Conte to publicly consider his future with the club, with the Italian “not used to this sort of results.” The likes of Mourinho, Espirito Santo and Conte represented a deviation from the attack-minded and progressive football played by Spurs under Pochettino, with the trio more defensive and in win-now mentalities. “When I say about making assessment, for sure I have to speak with the club to talk and find the right solution, because it is not right to continue in this way.” They have failed to win more than two games in a row and suffered embarrassing cup exits at the hands of Sheffield United (FA Cup) and Nottingham Forest (Carabao Cup). After all, Kane was on the verge of moving to Manchester City in a monster deal in the summer of 2021, only for Levy to play hardball and refuse to budge on his asking price for the talismanic striker. Although he lead Spurs to a Champions League final, domestic results had nosedived and the club were 14th on the Premier League ladder at the time of his dismissal. Worryingly, the latest chapter in Spurs’ trophyless seasons could be the final piece of evidence Harry Kane needs to move on from the club once and for all.

The termination of his contract is a defeat for everyone - for the club and then coach, unable to manage a team built through his indications but denied in the last press conference through a direct attack on individual players.
