Spurs defender Davies: We've missed Conte

Tottenham Hotspur defender Ben Davies admits the players are relieved to have Antonio Conte back in the fray.

Spurs are going through a poor run of form, losing to Wolves in the Premier League at the weekend.

Conte is now back in England and will take training on Monday as they prepare for a Champions League clash with AC Milan on Wednesday.

Per The Express, Davies said: "We're really looking forward to getting him back. It's been a while now, but we have a huge game Wednesday, and it is very important he is with us.

"It's obviously very strange, but we've been in very capable hands with Cristian Stellini.

"The manager wasn't too far away. He's been there as a point of contact. It will be good to have him back."
