Conte labels Juventus rumors "disrespectful" ahead of the London derby

Gathering 11 points from their opening five Premier League games,

a defeat to Fulham put an end to Tottenham's unbeaten run. The Spurs will face the leaders,

Arsenal

, on Saturday as they hope to break the 1-point gap they have to the top of the table.

Meanwhile, the Spurs’ boss

has been linked with a move to

Juventus

who had a disastrous start to the new Serie A season. However, Conte rubbishes speculations labeling rumors "disrespectful".

He told his press conference:

"This is incredible. In this period I think this is disrespectful for the coach that works in Juventus and for me working in Tottenham.

"We have just started the season. Many times I have spoken about this topic and I've always said I'm happy and enjoying my time with Tottenham.

"We have the whole season to find the best solution for the club and for me, and for sure I'm enjoying my time at Tottenham. I have a great relationship with the owner [Daniel Levy] and [sporting director Fabio] Paratici.

"I don't see any problems at the moment in the future. We both signed the contract. I don't want to listen to someone speaking about this."

Hailing

's work at Arsenal, Conte added:

"For sure Arsenal had a fantastic start, they lost only one game against [Manchester] United. They are showing to be a really good team.

"In the summer they made good signings and improved the team that, don't forget, before the last three games of last season, were four points up on us.

"We are talking about a really good team that, last season, we did a really good job to overcome in the last three games.

"At the same time, I know the quality of this team, that they are working with Arteta for many years. For me, he's a really good coach. He can have in front of him a great career."

With

Hugo Lloris

and

Dejan Kulusevski

doubtful for their Saturday derby, Conte believes the busy schedule between now and the winter

World Cup

will determine genuine title contenders.

"I have seen that many clubs are having big problems with players that played these two games [in the international break], and for sure Tottenham is one of these clubs,"

he added

.

"You have to understand this was the last game [for the players] to show they deserve to play the World Cup, also for the coaches it was the last period to call the players.

"For sure, to play so many games before the international break, and then again now to play 13 games in 43 days, it's crazy, it's crazy.

"For sure, we have to face it with injuries. In this period, you understand which are the really competitive squads.

"This is the moment in which you understand who are the title contenders and the teams that are competitive for Champions League."
