The unrestrained Conte wants to sit on the bench four days after surgery!

by

Beast… in the cage one could call him Antonio Conte. The Italian coach, despite the fact that he underwent an operation to remove a cyst just last Wednesday, does not wish to be away from his team’s playing duties under any circumstances and is planning his immediate return, starting with the match against Tottenham with the Manchester City on Sunday (5/2) in London.

As characteristically stated by his assistant, Christian Stellinithe 53-year-old former coach of Juventus, Inter and Chelsea he is currently recovering on Italian soil and tomorrow he will know if the doctors will finally allow him to travel to the English capital and coach his team in the crucial match against the champions.

Should the medical report give the green light to Conte’s return, then his 48-year-old assistant who has been by his side since the Italian coach sat on the bench at Juve, will take over as first manager.

The “roosters” who are in 5th place this year Premier League are desperately looking for a winning run that will take them back into the top four of the standings and into the positions leading to the Champions League while at the same time they are looking for “revenge” against the “citizens” for their 4-2 defeat on January 19 at the “Etihad”.
