Tottenham: Antonio Conte will be confirmed as new manager TODAY

Antonio Conte has been confirmed as the new Tottenham manager.

As MailOnline exclusively revealed yesterday morning, Nuno Esposito Santo was axed as Spurs head coach, the club confirming the Portuguese's departure just before 10am.

The club's increasingly influential director of football Fabio Paratici moved quickly to identify Nuno's replacement, with a deal in principle for former Chelsea boss Conte. He has already met the players as attention swiftly turns to Thursday's Europa Conference League clash with Vitesse.
