A manager of Antonio Conte's pedigree is very much expected to be paid handsomely for his services and that is the case at Tottenham.
The Italian tactician is regarded as one of the best managers in the world. His track record is also very impressive and has previously managed the likes of Juventus, Chelsea and Inter Milan.
Conte is known for bringing out the best in his teams, as they are often drilled to become serial winners. This has been the case wherever the Italian has been appointed as head coach.
