Simon Jordan believes Antonio Conte and Tottenham Hotspur would be a “marriage made in hell”, telling talkSPORT (26 May, 11am) the Serie A-winning Inter Milan manager is simply the wrong man for the job.
Conte certainly shares some things in common with a certain Jose Mourinho – and not just because they both tasted Premier League and Serie A glory with Chelsea and Inter.
The fire-breathing, blue-eyed dragon of European football is never afraid to air his dirty laundry in public.
Conte has frequently taken aim at his Inter bosses during two years at the San Siro, criticising the Italian giants for what he viewed to be sub-standard recruitment while spending many a press conference firing jabs at a crop of cowering journalists.
