Tottenham boss Antonio Conte is being linked with a return to Juventus.

The Daily Mail says Juve chief Pavel Nedved wants to bring Conte back to Juve.

Conte left Juventus in the summer of 2014 after feeling he wasn't backed by current president Andrea Agnelli in the transfer window, with the pair famously having a spat last year, when the current Spurs boss flipped his middle finger at his former boss while managing Inter Milan.

Without their fall-out, Conte would have already returned to the Juventus dug-out.

Juventus director Nedved and Tottenham's managing director Fabio Paratici - then at Juventus - tried desperately to convince Agnelli to bring Conte back to the club without succeeding.

With Conte's contract expiring in the summer of 2023, it's now seen as the right time for a return to Juventus, particularly with Max Allegri facing dismissal after a dismal start to the season.
