Tottenham Hotspur manager, Antonio Conte, has given conditions to Paris Saint-Germain’s hierarchy, if he is to take over from Mauricio Pochettino.

Pochettino is expected to leave the Ligue 1 side despite securing the title last weekend.

The Argentine has struggled to win over the fans and failed to progress past the last 16 of the Champions League.

Although there are speculations that PSG have made Zinedine Zidane their preferred candidate to replace Pochettino, Conte has also offered his services to the club.

The Italian coach only joined Tottenham in November, but has repeatedly prompted doubts over his long-term future at the club.

Conte’s contract with the Premier League club only lasts until 2023.

According to French radio station RMC Sport, Conte would be very interested in taking over at the Parc des Princes, but he has a list of very demanding conditions PSG must agree to.

The former Inter Milan boss is demanding almost double his wages to a whopping €30million (£25.2m) per year. This will make his the second highest-paid manager in the world behind Atletico Madrid’s Diego Simeone.

Conte also wants to bring his entire coaching staff with him and that includes picking his own sporting director.

He would want more control over transfers than any of the club’s previous managers over the past decade.

Manchester United legend, Wayne Rooney, has picked the Red Devils defender Luke Shaw as the most improved player in the Premier League following the conclusion of the 2025/26 season.

Speaking on his BBC podcast, Rooney said, “I think, for me, Luke Shaw. I think Luke Shaw has been the most improved player this season.

“I know he is an experienced player now, but I think his level this season has been much better than it has been in recent seasons.

“People might look at Kobbie Mainoo but I don’t think he’s improved. It was just the fact he wasn’t playing under the former manager so it wasn’t good or bad.”

Shaw enjoyed one of his most consistent seasons at Man United and started all of Man United’s Premier League games.
