Premier League manager Antonio Conte, who recently saw his club, Spurs, sign Pedro Porro from Sporting CP, has been hospitalised for emergency surgery, the club announced today (February 1).

“Antonio Conte recently became unwell with severe abdominal pain,” Tottenham’s official Twitter account wrote.

“Following a diagnosis of cholecystitis, he will be undergoing surgery to remove his gallbladder today and will return following a period of recuperation.

“Everyone at the Club wishes him well.”

Football clubs, players and fans wished the popular manager well with his upcoming surgery.

The news of Conte’s illness comes after the Italian manager lost fitness coach Gian Piero Ventrone following a short illness.
