Tottenham manager Antonio Conte has explained his latest absence from the dugout as he aims “to further and fully recover” from gallbladder surgery.
"My great sense of responsibility towards the club, the players, the staff and the fans brought me to anticipate my comeback on [the] field. Sadly I underestimated the procedure, which wasn't a routine operation, but a sudden and serious emergency.
"My body has suffered my impatience, and now I am forced to stop until my entire recovery. Who knows me, understands what a burden this is for me, but it is necessary. Come on you Spurs!"
