- Spurs concerned about Italian’s transfer budget demands
- Club are close to hiring Fabio Paratici as sporting director
Tottenham have called off their move to appoint Antonio Conte as their new manager a little over 24 hours after believing they were close to a deal. The London club are primed to hire Fabio Paratici in the role of sporting director as the chairman, Daniel Levy, drives a return to a two-tier management structure.
