Antonio Conte has been assured a bumper transfer warchest ahead of taking the Tottenham job.

The Italian, 52, is in advanced talks with Spurs over an 18-month deal worth £15m a year after they sacked boss Nuno Espirito Santo on Monday.

Conte snubbed the chance to take over the North Londoners in the summer as he claimed they were not ambitious enough.

But Spurs chairman Daniel Levy, backed by billionaire owner Joe Lewis, has performed a stunning U-turn by offering Conte a huge contract equivalent to £290,000 a week — plus heavy backing in the transfer market.

Levy is desperate for a turnaround after his decision to employ Nuno as a cheap stop-gap backfired — and he now faces having to pay in excess of £5m to get rid of him.

The Sun says Conte will be   given a £150MILLION transfer war chest to revive Tottenham.
