Report: Spurs players return to double training session after six-day break granted by Conte

The Tottenham squad returned to training at Hotspur Way on Sunday after being given six days off by Antonio Conte during the winter break, according to Football.London. 

Spurs went into the two-week pause on the back of a 2-0 defeat to Chelsea, which ended Conte’s nine-match unbeaten run on his return to Premier League management. 

Despite the defeat, the Italian gave his squad plenty of motivation beforehand, by promising them some extra days off if they could snatch a positive result against the Blues (Football.London).  

The Spurs contingent were handed a near week-long break but, as per Football.London, have now returned to the club’s Enfield training base to get back to work. 

The report states Conte welcomed the players back with an intense double training session to ramp up their sharpness ahead of next Saturday’s FA Cup clash at home to Brighton.  

The tie against the Seagulls kicks off a three-match run at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with Spurs hosting Southampton and Wolves in the Premier League a week later.

The break will have hopefully given the players a chance to wind down and recharge their batteries after a tough winter period. It is expected that Conte’s sessions will be like pre-season, which is key to getting them back up to speed and ready for the final half of the campaign.
