ANTONIO CONTE has demanded Tottenham match his ambitions in the transfer market this month — or risk losing him as manager.
The Spurs boss repeatedly refused to give assurances that he will not walk out on the club if there are no reinforcements this month.
Conte has only been in charge for ten weeks.
But he has been outspoken in his belief Tottenham’s squad requires a major overhaul.
The Italian wants Wolves wideman Adama Traore, as well as defensive recruits.
And the club are ready to off-load record-signing Tanguy Ndombele.
He was axed from the squad for Wednesday’s Carabao Cup semi-final loss to Chelsea.
When he was asked how important it was that the club gets its recruitment right to match his own ambition and his reputation as a ‘winner’, Conte replied: “Yeah, for sure.
“I don’t lose my ambition. I like to fight and to be competitive.
“I know there is only one team that can lift trophies at the end of the season.
“But I don’t want to lose my characteristic.
“I don’t want to lose my will, my desire. Otherwise I will go against myself.
“I want to keep this characteristic as a winner.” (UK SUN)

Victor Osimhen appreciates his decision to join Galatasaray on loan from Napoli, adding that he didn’t want anyone to decide his future. The Nigeria striker made this assertion while reflecting on his protracted summer transfer saga that saw Napoli desperately sell him off to Al-Ahli and Chelsea in the embers of the window, with the latter his long-term choice destination offering peanuts for his signature. The 25-year-old said that he was prepared to remain at Napoli for another three or four months and secure a move to one of his suitors in January, reiterating the relief ushered by the Galatasaray offer. “I had plans to stay there and wait for three or four months and leave in January, but I think for me it was fair also to stay there because I wouldn’t let anyone decide for me,” Osimhen told Turkish media, including TRT Spor, from the Galatasaray training centre.
