Conte Slams 'Disrespectful' Links To Beleaguered Juventus

Conte Slams 'Disrespectful' Links To Beleaguered Juventus

Tottenham Hotspurs manager Antonio Conte has slammed reports linking him with a return to beleaguered Serie A side Juventus.

The 53-year-old spent three years in charge of Juventus between 2011 and 2014, winning three Serie A titles on the bounce.

The Bianconerri's stock has fallen in recent seasons, failing to win the Serie A title in the last two campaigns and currently lying eighth on the table after posting just two wins from six league outings this term.

Such poor form has ramped up the pressure on Massimiliano Allegri at the Allianz Stadium, leading to speculation that Conte could be hired to take over.

Conte has been in charge of Spurs since November last year and led them to Champions League qualification while the North London outfit are unbeaten domestically this season, sitting third on the table, one point behind leaders Arsenal whom they face on Saturday.

"This is incredible. In this period I think this is disrespectful for the coach that works in Juventus and for me working in Tottenham," Conte said on Thursday.

"We have just started the season. Many times I have spoken about this topic and I've always said I'm happy and enjoying my time with Tottenham. 

"We have the whole season to find the best solution for the club and for me, and for sure I'm enjoying my time at Tottenham. I have a great relationship with the owner [Daniel Levy] and [sporting director Fabio] Paratici. 

"I don't see any problems at the moment in the future. We both signed the contract. I don't want to listen to someone speaking about this."
