The huge financial windfall Daniel Levy and Tottenham will receive ... (Football.London)

Tottenham could be set to bring in a huge amount of money next season if they secure a Champions League finish on the final day at Norwich City.

That isn't the only money up for grabs in Europe's premier competition as clubs also bring in more money due to the TV pool and UEFA coefficient. However, Conte and his players will be intent on getting the job done in style as they aim to clinch a place in Europe's premier competition for the first time since 2019/20. The Champions League is now firmly in sight for Antonio Conte and his Tottenham team heading into the final game of the 2021/22 season. So how much could the Lilywhites be set to earn if they do indeed wrap up Champions League football come 5.45pm on Sunday? Part of that money is based on a team's position in the previous season's Premier League - winners getting 40%, 2nd 30%, 3rd 20% and 4th 10% - and the other part dependent on how far each progress in the Champions League. Having to do without Champions League football in the past two campaigns, a return to Europe's premier competition really does have the potential of bringing in a lucrative amount for Daniel Levy and Tottenham. A place in the last 16 of the Champions League is then worth €9.6m (£8.2m), quarter-finals €10.6m (£9m) and semi-finals €12.5m (£10.6m). The Champions League winner will then receive €20m (£17.1m) and the runner-up €15.5m (£13.2m), meaning the maximum possible amount of money to be earned by winning the Champions League is €69.5m (£59.7m), which comes to €85.1m (£71.9m) in total when you add the participation money on top.

Tottenham boss Conte remains in contention for PSG job (The Boot Room)

Tottenham Hotspur boss Antonio Conte reportedly remains in contention for the PSG job after the previous links with the Italian.

Conte is clearly loving life at Spurs right now. But perhaps there is a chance that Conte will not be in place in North London next season. The fresh links will probably not worry Tottenham fans too much.

Tottenham transfer news: Spurs 'preparing to hijack' Arsenal swoop ... (Mirror.co.uk)

Tottenham's surge to the brink of Champions League football next season has put chairman Daniel Levy on standby for major upgrades in the transfer market.

Dutch giants Ajax fell short with a £15m bid in January - Tottenham want closer to the £27m they paid for him two years earlier. Gone is the efficiency of a purely functional team, and enter the smooth, controlled, sophisticated play produced by the Dane.” The Bees will discuss turning Eriksen's loan from Inter Milan into a permanent transfer after their final game of the season against Leeds this weekend.

'Within the next five years': Micah Richards says Spurs will win a ... (HITC)

Micah Richards has been discussing Tottenham Hotspur's chances of winning some silverware in the next few years.

If they keep Harry Kane, Son and Conte they will win a trophy within the next five years. “If they stay together they will win a trophy. Richards says that Spurs could win a League Cup or an FA Cup in the next five years if Conte, Son and Kane stay together, but that’s hardly appealing is it?

Tottenham Hotspur: Levy will be 'delighted' with Champions League ... (The Transfer Tavern)

Tottenham will welcome UEFA's plan to award additional spaces in the Champions League based on a league-specific coefficient system, claims Kieran Maguire.

However, critics argued that this represented an unwarranted insurance policy for the ‘big clubs’ who were seen to be underperforming. With the new insurance policy set to come into play, Levy will be delighted with the increased probability of gaining revenue as a result of Champions League qualification. Therefore, the introduction of a backstop will surely be welcomed by Spurs, as Maguire has suggested.

Spurs: Tanguy Ndombele set to return to Tottenham (FootballFanCast.com)

Tanguy Ndombele is set to return to Tottenham Hotspur at the end of the current campaign.

As such, it is easy to see that Ndombele’s departure this summer would be a move that best suits all parties, with it being made clear in no uncertain terms that the Frenchman has no future under Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur regime. However, the report goes on to state that the France international does not feature in Antonio Conte’s first-team plans, before suggesting that Ndombele will be forced to train alone while Fabio Paratici attempts to secure the midfielder a permanent move away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Tanguy Ndombele is set to return to Tottenham Hotspur at the end of the current campaign.

Cristian Romero spoke of his delight at his start to life in North London in Sunday's official Tottenham match-day programme.

Sadly he left the club on loan, but we have a great group of players here and I get on with all my teammates nowadays. I hope things continue in this way and we can finish the season positively.” I can say the same about the league, which is the best in the world.

Spurs: Daniel Levy had a shocker on Sadio Mane (FootballFanCast.com)

Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy had a shocker when missing out on Sadio Mane back in 2016.

Indeed, The Times reported back in 2017 that the Senegal international came so close to joining Spurs that he visited Hotspur Way to discuss a transfer from the South Coast side, only for Mauricio Pochettino to fail to convince Levy to meet the 24-year-old’s wage demands – with Mane ultimately sealing a £34m switch to Liverpool. As such, it is clear for all to see that Levy had a nightmare when deciding against a move for the £100k-per-week man who Jamie Carragher dubbed “ underrated” back in 2016. This is largely down to Daniel Levy failing to implement a long-term transfer strategy at Spurs in years gone by, something that has also cost the club dearly in the targets they ended up choosing not to pursue – arguably the most notable of which was when the chairman backed out of a deal to bring then-Southampton forward Sadio Mane to Spurs in the summer of 2016.

30-year-old Spurs target eyed as 'ideal replacement' for Tielemans ... (To The Lane And Back)

Leicester City view Brentford midfielder Christian Eriksen as the ideal replacement for Youri Tielemans who could leave this summer.

That makes up for an interesting summer, but whether Conte would get his man or not would need to be seen. It is no wonder why Conte admires the 30-year-old, but whether Spurs would target the attacking midfielder or not remains to be seen. The lack of creativity has been apparent at times as we struggled to create clear cut opportunities or even generate shots on target, which was a poor look for us during our slump.

Spurs outcast to return to London after loan club decline option ... (Shoot)

The midfielder has managed one goal and two assists so far during his second spell with the club, but it appears he has not done enough to persuade those in charge of the Ligue 1 side to splash out on him. Ndombele returned to his former side on loan in January, and the deal included an option-to-buy clause that was believed to be £50 million. The midfielder is currently on loan at Ligue 1 side Lyon, but the French side will decline the option to make his move permanent, according to Football Insider.

Conte's Spurs rebuild will speed up with Champions League return (The Athletic)

The Champions League is the most prestigious members' club in football - it is where Daniel Levy has always wanted Tottenham.

This opens the door to a fifth English team in the Champions League, and given recent English success in Europe, a fifth place would have been awarded here in four of the last five seasons. It should mean that those clubs will all be more ambitious in the market this summer, because they know there is less of a risk from next season onwards of missing out. Spurs would like to be ambitious this summer and give Conte the players to take this team to the next level. And the modern history of Spurs is of their attempts to force their way in without the financial firepower of the biggest clubs. Monday night felt like an ominous warning to the top six of how good Newcastle might be next season. If he completes the job, that is a personal triumph for him too, and he knows how much it would mean. It is possible to get good players without Champions League football, just look at this season’s signings of Cristian Romero, Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentancur. Throw in the best stadium and training ground in the country and this is a club that can be optimistic about the future again. The first question is the future of the head coach. That, in part, is why they built the stadium, to bridge the gap to their richer rivals. Their 3-0 defeat in Germany, played under the shadow of the emerging pandemic, felt like the end of something. It felt that night as if the whole club was broken, each distinct part of it drifting in a different direction.

Speaking on the Premier League's YouTube channel, Emerson Royal has been full of praise for Lucas Moura.

Nobody can live with Lucas when he’s playing his best football. When he’s at his best, he’s, quite simply, unplayable. Indeed, Emerson has labelled Lucas as a decisive player, stating that the winger has amazing potential and that he can win any game at any moment in time.
