Antonio Conte confirmed as Tottenham Hotspur manager ahead of trip to Everton

Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed the appointment of Antonio Conte as their new manager ahead of a trip to face Everton on Sunday.

The north London club sacked Nuno Espirito Santo earlier this week after a 3-0 defeat at home to Manchester United last weekend, with the Portuguese boss having just 124 days in charge.

Spurs have moved quickly to secure former Chelsea and Inter Milan boss Conte, with his first match back in the Premier League coming against Everton at Goodison Park this Sunday.

Before then, in the Europa Conference League on Thursday, Tottenham will host Vitesse in what will be the first competitive match of the Italian's tenure.

Everton will go into Sunday's match at home to Spurs one point behind their opponents and one place lower than them in the Premier League table after three consecutive defeats.
