Although Conte’s exit at Spurs came after his remarkable post-match press conference following the 3-3 draw with Southampton last weekend. The North London club confirmed Cristian Stellini will be their acting head coach for the remainder of the season, with Ryan Mason his assistant.
It must be noted that Pochettino – whose family has been residing in London – has now posted on his Instagram account that he has returned from a holiday in Japan amid speculation that he could make a sensational return to the Premier League.
Pochettino is a leading candidate to return to Spurs – the club who dismissed him in November 2019. That was with Tottenham languishing in 14th in the Premier League – albeit just six points off the top five – and less than six months after he had led the club to their first-ever Champions League final.
Mauricio Pochettino has posted a timely reminder that he is back in London after Tottenham parted company with Antonio Conte.
Pochettino spent five-and-a-half years at the helm of the north London club, taking them to the Champions League final in 2019 before being dismissed six months later. He subsequently spent a season-and-a-half at Paris Saint-Germain prior to his sacking at the end of last season.
