The announcement was made on Spurs' website on Tuesday November 2nd, 2021. Conte expressed his delight about his appointment at the London club.

I am extremely happy to return to coaching and to do so at a Premier League club that has the ambition to be a protagonist again.

Tottenham Hotspur has a state-of-the-art facilities and one of the best stadiums in the world.

I can not wait to start working to convey to the team and the fans the passion, mentality and determination that have always distinguished me, as a player and as a coach.

The last time Conte was in the Premier League, he won the league title in his first season with Chelsea in the 2016/17 season. He went on a winning streak of 13 consecutive games in the league, the Blues won 30 out of the 38 league games.

He won the FA Cup in his second season beating Manchester United 1-0 in the final game, courtesy of a goal for Eden Hazard.

He also won four Serie A titles and two Italian Super Cup, which includes three league titles with Juventus and one league title with Inter Milan.
