Spurs possess the option to trigger a 12 month extension in the deal.

But according to Italian expert Gianluca DiMarzio, they will let Conte’s contract expire and he will depart.

Appearing on Sky in Italy, DiMarzio lifted the lid on the 53-year-old’s situation.

He said: “The news I can tell you with certainty is that Antonio Conte will leave Tottenham at the end of the season.

“There was no spark, his contract is expiring and the club has not asked him for a renewal.

“The club does not like the frequent jibes.

“Conte wants players to win, while the club prefers to trade, the feeling with the club has not clicked.

“His family, among other things, has remained in Italy.”

The former Chelsea boss was appointed by Spurs in November 2021 as successor to Nuno Espirito Santo.

He helped inspire an upturn in form that led to Tottenham pipping Arsenal to fourth spot last term.

Things have gone backwards this season, however, with Spurs’ performances largely poor even in victory.

Tottenham have picked up just four points from four league games since the Premier League resumed following the World Cup.

They sit fifth in the table, six points off the top four.
