LONDON: Jose Mourinho was sacked as manager of Tottenham Hotspur on Monday six days before the League Cup final.
Tottenham confirmed in a statement that the Portuguese had left along with his coaching staff.
“The Club can today announce that Jose Mourinho and his coaching staff Joao Sacramento, Nuno Santos, Carlos Lalin and Giovanni Cerra have been relieved of their duties,” it said.
The news comes the morning after the London club said it was one of 12 clubs forming a breakaway European Super League.
Former Porto, Chelsea, Inter Milan, Real Madrid and Manchester United manager Mourinho had been in charge of 86 games at the club, having replaced Mauricio Pochettino in November 2019.
