Tottenham Hotspur sack Jose Mourinho, Ryan Mason to take charge
Jose Mourinho
Jose Mourinho has been sacked as the Tottenham Hotspur manager after talks on Monday. The decision comes less than a week before the Carabao Cup final. First-team coaches Ryan Mason and Chris Powell will take charge of the London club for the remainder of the campaign.
Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy took the decision over the club's disappointing second half of the Premier League 2020-21 season.
Tottenham Hotspur drew Everton 2-2 on Friday and the drop of points leaves the club seventh in the table, five points behind the Champions League spots and the Spurs chairman decided it is time to move on.
