Tottenham Fire Nuno After Just Four Months As Manager

Tottenham have sacked Nuno Espirito Santo just four months after appointing him as head coach.

The development was revealed in a statement released by the North London club

Nuno signed a two-year deal to take over as Spurs boss at the end of June and started brilliantly, winning his first three Premier League games, grabbing the PL Manager of The Month for August, but a downward turn in results and form has seen the Portuguese receive the boot out of the Tottenham Stadium

The final straw seemed to be the 3-0 defeat at the hands of Manchester United over the weekend, with his decision to substitute Lucas Moura for Steven Bergwijn greeted with chants of “you don’t know what you’re doing” by the Spurs faithful.

A statement read: “The club can today announce that Nuno Espirito Santo and his coaching staff Ian Cathro, Rui Barbosa and Antonio Dias have been relieved of their duties.”

Spurs managing director of football, Fabio Paratici, added: “I know how much Nuno and his coaching staff wanted to succeed and I regret that we have had to take this decision.

“Nuno is a true gentleman and will always be welcome here. We should like to thank him and his coaching staff and wish them well for the future.”

Nuno departs with Tottenham eighth in the top flight, having won five and lost five of their opening matches of the season.
