Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte slams reports linking him with the Paris Saint-Germain job as "lies" and "fake news".

Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte has rubbished reports linking him with the hotseat at Paris Saint-Germain.

With Mauricio Pochettino facing an uncertain future in the French capital, Conte is rumoured to be one of the names on the Parisiens' shortlist to take over for the 2022-23 season.

One report had claimed that Conte had already offered his services to the Ligue 1 champions, but the Italian has since slammed the speculation as "fake news".

"It is good that other clubs appreciate my work, but I don't like when people try to invent news to create problems," Conte told reporters ahead of Sunday's Premier League game with Leicester City.

"This is not right, this is not fair for me or for the clubs involved and for my players. We are really focused in these five games to get a fantastic result. This type of situation makes me smile, but people have to show respect for all the people involved and do not invent fake news or tell lies."

Conte remains under contract at Tottenham until the summer of 2023 and will aim to steer his side back into the top four of the Premier League table for at least a couple of hours with victory over the Foxes.
