Tottenham boss Antonio Conte could become frustrated with the club's hierarchy this summer if he doesn't get the players he wants through the door, according to insider Dean Jones.

Conte, who has been in charge of just 28 games at Spurs, has managed to steer his side into contention for a Champions League spot this season, but it appears that he is not content, and will demand to be given transfer funds ahead of the 2022/23 campaign.

What is the latest news on Tottenham's summer transfer plans?

Spurs made just two signings in January, but they have both worked out well. The north London club brought in Juventus duo Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur, and they have taken to the Premier League with very few issues.

Conte is looking to strengthen his squad in four more areas of the pitch in the next transfer window.

According to The Athletic, the Tottenham manager wants to sign a left-sided centre-back, wing-backs for both flanks, and a back-up striker to provide support to Harry Kane.

What has Jones said about Conte and Tottenham?

Conte looks to have set ambitious targets for the summer, but he will expect to be backed by the club's board.

Jones feels Tottenham had an underwhelming January window, and he fears that if Tottenham fail to deliver again, Conte may decide to kick up a fuss.

Speaking to GIVEMESPORT, Jone said: “Conte has been clear since the day he went to the club where he feels his team needs strengthening. They didn’t give him what he needed in January, and that’s why they have to in the summer.

“If Tottenham don’t strengthen by the time we come to August in those positions, I can definitely see a situation again where Conte’s throwing his toys out the pram.”

Could Conte still leave Tottenham even if qualify for the Champions League?

If Tottenham finish inside the top four this season, this could significantly improve their chances of keeping Conte at the club for at least another year.

However, the Italian coach will not let them rest on their laurels this summer, and he will want to kick on again.

This is likely to mean that he will want to bring in several fresh faces to bolster his squad, while also ensuring that Harry Kane stays at the club.

If Tottenham have a below-par summer window, it is not beyond the realms of possibility that Conte could decide that he's had enough and walk out.

Less than a year ago, he left Inter Milan having just won Serie A, so the prospect of managing in the Champions League at Tottenham will not be the only factor that determines his future.

Spurs must match Conte's ambition in the transfer market, or he could bid farewell to them in the coming months.
