Conte claims his Spursside are weaker aftersigning Juventus pair

Tottenham Hotspur brought in both Dejan
Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur from
Juventus in January, but manager Antonio
Conte admitted that his squad was now
weaker than when the transfer window
opened.
The north London club allowed Tanguy
Ndombele, Lo Celso, Dele Alli and Bryan Gil
all to depart last month, while both Kulu and
Bentancur arrived in the final week of the
window.

The manager has now admitted that his side
is weaker than when the window began, by
telling Sky Sport Italia(via the BBC): “What
happened in January was not easy..
Spurs boss Conte added: “We lost four
players. Four important players for Tottenham
and we brought in only two.
“So even just in terms of numbers, rather than
reinforce the squad, we, on paper, may have
weakened it”
Juve on the other hand, we brought in two
players whilst allowing two to leave, and are
very much a stronger squad with a better
balance within our team, and are most
definitely going to profit from our transfer
dealings. While Conte’s side have lost both
their league matches since signing the pair
from us, we have been in top form thus far,
with Vlahovic already scoring two from his
three outings also.
