Conte To Stay At Tottenham
Antonio Conte has dismissed reports that he is destined for Paris Saint Germain.
The Italian coach who joined Tottenham Hotspurs this season was linked to PSG following rumors that Mauricio Pochettino might be sacked.
Conte refuted these rumors claiming that he is not going anywhere since he has 12 months left on his contract with the English Premier League-based side.
He said:
I think it’s good other clubs appreciate my work. This is one thing. The truth is that I don’t like when people try to invent news, only to speak or create problems.
This is not right, not fair for me, for the clubs involved, and for my players.
Also because we’re focused on these five games to get a fantastic result for us. I repeat, this type of situation makes me smile.
He added:
But I think also the people that want to tell something about this have to show respect for all the people involved in this situation and not invent fake news and tell a lot of lies.
In this the situation, who works in football-players or managers know very well at this point of season, a lot of fake news starts to go out.
As of late, Pochettino despite winning his first ever managerial trophy with PSG, rumors spread wildy on social media that his bosses are ready to sack him after his crush out of the UEFA Champions league competition.
With its top brass players-Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar, PSG were knocked out if the UCL by Real Madrid following a 3-2 defeat on aggregate.
However, Conte has said that he aims to qualify for champions league next season. Currently, the Spurs are on 5th position, trailing with just two points from Arsenal who got 60 points.
We’re working very hard and my players know very well we’re very focused. We’re speaking a lot about this opportunity.
We have to live this situation with passion, enthusiasm and joy. I repeat, we deserve to stay there and to fight for a place in the Champions League. A place in Champions League is not easy for no one.
To stay there, we need to enjoy this situation. For this reason, I repeat our fans have to stay with us at every moment. Positive and negative moments. We deserve to fight until the end and have a big push from our fans.
