Earlier on Monday, we relayed news from Italy that Antonio Conte is ‘evaluating’ a Tottenham Hotspur approach, having rejected them in the summer.
It was also explained ‘these are decisive hours’ for the 52-year-old to say ‘yes’ to the north London club.
Nuno Espírito Santo is under immense pressure after his side suffered five defeats in their last seven league matches.
While Conte tops Fabio Paratici’s wishlist, there are alternatives to the former Chelsea boss. That’s according to Calciomercato.it, who believe Andrea Pirlo could be an option for the Premier League side.
Juventus appointed Pirlo as their head coach for the 2020/21 season and after finishing fourth in the table, they decided to cut ties with the former midfielder. He is now looking for a new adventure.
Having turned down the option to manage Sampdoria, the chances of coaching Barcelona are slowly diminishing as their priority is to appoint Xavi.
Pirlo, as per the report, is ‘waiting to understand what his next chance will be’. This is when Tottenham are tagged. Spurs are going through a ‘crisis’ and ‘will have to reflect’ on Nuno’s future.
For now, the 42-year-old Italian is waiting for information about where he could receive his next job offer.
