Tottenham boss Conte a man with magic wand, says Rio Ferdinand
Former Manchester United skipper, Rio Ferdinand, has described Tottenham Hotspur manager, Antonio Conte as a man with magic wand.
Conte is starting his first transfer window as Spurs manager, and it looks like it could be a busy one.
Indeed, the recent Duncan castle declare that he wants two central halves through the door this month, while also having link to Adama Traore.
Ferdinand found the links with Traore quite appealing, given that Conte has a tendency to turn wingers into full-backs, saying it will be interesting to see if he tries something similar with anyone. any new contract.
Ferdinand is discussing Conte’s use of wingers after Fabrizio Romano updated their interest in Adama Traore.
“Adama Traore is a name they have on their list, Fabio Paratici, the sporting director loves Adama Traore, he wants him at Juventus too, so he is a possibility for Tottenham,” said Romano. speak.

“A lot of times, at full-back, he especially enjoys playing with real wingers. He did it with Moses at Chelsea and with Perisic at Inter, so it will be interesting to see what type of player he picks out there,” said Ferdinand.
It will be interesting to see how Conte will manage Traore or any other winger arriving at Spurs.
Emerson Royal has not played brilliantly since joining the club, while Lucas Moura has been shining since Antonio Conte’s arrival, so it seems more likely there will be space at full-back than at wing.
Traore is certainly physically fit to play at full-back, but in defence, he will certainly have a lot to learn.
However, as Conte’s work with Victor Moses and Ivan Perisic shows, such transformation is entirely possible.
