Antonio Conte has returned to work with Tottenham after undergoing surgery last week to remove his gallbladder.

Spurs announced last Wednesday the Italian coach had to go under the knife after complaining of “severe abdominal pain” linked with cholecystitis.

Conte missed Tottenham’s 1-0 Premier League win over Manchester City last weekend, which led to assistant Cristian Stellini filling in.

The 53-year-old flew back from Italy to England earlier this week and oversaw training on Thursday ahead of the Leicester trip.

However, it has not yet been confirmed by Tottenham whether Antonio Conte will be in the dugout at the King Power Stadium on Saturday.

According to the United Kingdom’s National Health Service (NHS), the procedure Conte underwent can take roughly a month to “return to your normal activities”.

Tottenham, are fifth in the Premier League and will next play Leicester at the weekend.

They follow that up with a trip to Milan for the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie on Tuesday.
