Tottenham are ready to offer manager Antonio Conte a new contract, with talks set to take place as early as next week.

The Telegraph reports how Spurs are looking to engage with Conte and are confident in getting the Italian to sign a new deal with the club. Conte can actually leave at the end of the season, albeit Spurs do hold a 12 months extension clause.

However, Tottenham are hoping they can get Conte to sign a newer, longer-term contract as they look to cement their future under the Italian coach.

Conte has been backed in the market but is said to want assurances that Spurs will continue to spend more money as he looks to build a title challenging side. The former Inter Milan manager is used to winning and is keen to push Spurs as far as he can, with new players a must.

Dubbed an ‘amazing‘ manager by Frank Lampard, Conte has been one of the key factors in turning things around at the club.

Conte is said to be on around £15m-a-year at Tottenham, which equates to around £280k-a-week.

Tottenham are loving life under Conte and there is no doubt he has brought a new side of the game to Spurs.

They now seem resilient, ready to win, and when at their best they can beat any team in the league. Under Conte, Spurs look like they can win a trophy and the top four seems a formality as well.

For Tottenham fans, they’ll be hoping Conte does indeed break from his norm and put pen to paper. A new contract will be a huge boost, and it could even impact the likes of Kane an Son staying put.
