Commenting on the appointment, Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy said:
“In Jose we have one of the most successful managers in football.
“He has a wealth of experience, can inspire teams and is a great tactician. He has won honours at every club he has coached. We believe he will bring energy and belief to the dressing room.”
Speaking on his appointment, Jose said:
“I am excited to be joining a Club with such a great heritage and such passionate supporters. The quality in both the squad and the academy excites me. Working with these players is what has attracted me.”
His appointment heralds the end of Argentine’s POCHETTINO as tottenham’s head coach after a mini-succesful 5years stay in which he established the club as a top four club, ended their crosstown rivals(Arsenal) dominance as the top club in North London(Finishing above them in the league table consecutively on three occassions) and getting to the Uefa Champions League Final (albeit losing to eventual winners Liverpool).
Tottenham will play against West Ham this Saturday and Mourinho is going to face his former club Man Utd at 20:30 CET on December 4th.
