Antonio Conte is reportedly ‘unconvinced’ by the Tottenham Hotspur project and is now leaning towards a rejection, which could affect Fabio Paratici’s decision too.
According to Sky Sport Italia, the situation is increasingly tense and Conte is more and more likely to turn down the offer.
He left Inter because he was unwilling to accept a club that required cuts to the squad and wages, so as Spurs are not in a much better situation, the move raised a lot of questions.
Transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio notes Conte is now leaning towards a rejection of Tottenham, as he fears they will not have a competitive squad following sales.
The biggest concern is the probable exit of Harry Kane and the inability to bridge the massive gap between Spurs and the other top Premier League clubs.
Tottenham are also trying to bring in former Juventus director of sport Paratici, but if Conte doesn’t take the job, then that could also affect his decision.
