Conte praises Liverpool model as he mulls Spurs future

Conte agreed an 18-month contract but the Italian has continually refused to pledge his long-term future to Tottenham.

He recently revealed that his future would be decided after an end-of-season.

Conte, whose Tottenham team are fighting for a top-four spot in the Premier League, has been linked with French champions Paris Saint-Germain but last week he described the speculation as "fake news".

Ahead of Tottenham's match against quadruple-chasing Liverpool on Saturday, Conte said the key factor in his future would be whether the club was able to match his ambition and give him the tools to challenge for the league title.

Asked at his pre-match press conference whether Spurs were in a similar position now to where Liverpool were when Klopp took over, Conte said: "I don't know but if I was sure this type of situation can happen, I sign, you understand?
