Antonio Conte: Tottenham boss to remain at family home after post-operation check in Italy

Antonio Conte will again step away from first-team duties at Tottenham following a routine post-operation check in Italy; he will remain in his home country after undergoing surgery to remove his gallbladder two weeks ago; assistant coach Cristian Stellini will take charge in his absence

You just know Spurs would come a knocking for RDZ if Conte not fit to continue. Recent history tells us that our succession planning is superb but could we really pull another gem out of the bag?

Is there any chance RDZ would would want to stan or like Potter would the lure of the wages be too strong to resist?

Hopefully De Zerbi won’t jump at the first offer, but nothing would surprise me. In some ways it’s a nice problem that other clubs want our staff.

The good news is that whatever happens us lot (and Tony Bloom) will still be here.

Why wouldn’t they go for Franks ? He’s also doing an incredible job.

Thomas Frank is doing a fantastic job but there's no doubt whose football is easier on the eye.

No point in pondering catastrophe, best just enjoy the good times when they are here.

In certain ways it's harder to keep a manager than it is a player, but I would expect the club to take the same stance they did with Caicedo.

If Spurs do replace Conte anytime soon then the message would surely be RDZ isn't available because it's not the right time for us.

RDZ has a buyout clause in his contract. If a club feels it’s worth it they will trigger it, and we’d be able to do nothing.

There’s a lot of chatter on social media about replacements. A lot of the Spuds fans already want De Zerbi, both Franks and Poch are also mentioned a lot.

And in the case of Conte back again with a Turkish special.

 

[Acker79]

Would they risk it (or the fan backlash) while Potter is seen to be struggling?

 

[Weststander]

Genuinely wish Conte well.

Bet he won't be receiving a Get Well Soon card from Mourinho!

 

[The Pilsbury Echo]

Maybe we should just wish Conte a speedy recovery and hope he gets well soon!
My opinion is he won't be Spurs boss next season so they will be looking. RDZ would be possible contender but so would many others. Let's enjoy what's left of this season and overtake the Lillywhites and cement a euro spot. Massive game Saturday and every fan should play their part and make it the best atmosphere we've ever had at Amex...A VERY IMPORTANT GAME IMO. can u tell I'm a tad excited?

It may not be a straight forward release clause in the same way it is for a player.

Rather like when Ashworth left for Newcastle, he was placed on gardening leave until Newcastle paid us some compensation. With De Zerbi it coud be that the amount in the contract is what we would accept for us to release him from his contract immediately, if we were willing to let him go and he wanted to leave for another club. It isn't necessarily an automatic trigger point to allow personal term negotiations to being like it is with a player. Without reading the fine print on the contract we cannot be sure.

This link explains it a bit better with the example of Steve Bruce trying to leave Palace for Birmingham and Palace not accepting his resignation and putting him on gardening leave until compensation was agreed.

Maybe they would want continuity from Conte's eye pleasing* brand of football.

A case of someone putting two and two together and coming up with 137 l think.

Just because Antonio Conte is resting at home after his operation do you autom atically seem to assume that Spurs are going to look to changing their manager?

Furthermore, even if they were, why would they automatically set their sights on RDZ? He is far from the only manager who would meet their criteria. Thomas Franck has already been mentioned on this thread, plus Pochettino was being touted on the BBC Sport website only this morning as a possible successor.

I guess he has invested a lot of time and money in it, but that is probably the best hair transplant around.

Yep Brentford are horrible to watch. Remind me of Watford under Graham Taylor.
