Tottenham sack Jose Mourinho
Jose Mourinho has been sacked by Tottenham Hotspur.
The move came after they drew 2-2 with Everton on Friday evening, leaving them down in seventh place in the premiership table.
Mourinho was sacked on Monday, six days before Tottenham contest the Carabao Cup final against Manchester City,
The 58-year-old multiple league winner in England, Italy, and Spain has seen a downturn in his team’s fortunes since the turn of the year and Tottenham are in danger of missing out on qualifying for the UEFA Champions League.
Former Tottenham midfielder Ryan Mason and the ex-Charlton and Huddersfield boss Chris Powell have been placed in temporary charge.
Mourinho was appointed as Tottenham manager in November 2019, a day after the sacking of Mauricio Pochettino.
He guided them to sixth place in the table by the end of the campaign, but his style of football often didn’t win him much acclaim from fans.
Coaching staff Joao Sacramento, Nuno Santos, Carlos Lalin and Giovanni Cerra have also been relieved of their duties.
