The Lillywhites defied expectations to snatch that all-important Champions League spot ahead of rivals Arsenals - and the difference that makes has been crystal clear already.
Fraser Forster has arrived from Southampton to rival Hugo Lloris for the number one position while the experienced Ivan Perisic is in town.
There is Yves Bissouma who turned down the chance to join Aston Villa in January and has instead moved to north London.
When the likes of Harry Winks and Steven Bergwijn leave there will be space to bring players that suit the ideas the Italian manager wants to play next season.
Inter Milan’s Alessandro Bastoni is high on the list of wants, while Djed Spence from Middlesbrough has been widely mentioned too.
So, with all the names being bundled around, here is the team Antonio Conte could play on the opening day against Southampton.
1. Hugo Lloris
Still the most trusted hands in the game and will look to see out his final days in north London with class
2. Eric Dier
Unlucky not to have made the England team and if he continues on this form then he will definitely make a case for himself to be in Qatar.
3. Cristian Romero
Showed what he was made of last season but there is feeling that there is more to come from him
4. Alessandro Bastoni
A defender who Antonio loves and wants to bring in to add to his defensive set-up
