Jose Mourinho has been appointed Tottenham manager, succeeding Mauricio Pochettino who was sacked on Tuesday.

Former Chelsea and Manchester United boss Mourinho has signed a contract until the end of the 2022-23 season.

"The quality in both the squad and the academy excites me," said the 56-year-old Portuguese. "Working with these players is what has attracted me."


Spurs chairman Daniel Levy said: "In Jose we have one of the most successful managers in football."

Tottenham reached the Champions League final last season under Pochettino but lost to Liverpool in Madrid.

The Argentine, who was appointed in May 2014, failed to win a trophy in his time in charge of the north London club with Spurs' last silverware being the League Cup in 2008.

Levy added: "He (Mourinho) 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."

Mourinho still lives in London and won three Premier League titles and one FA Cup in two spells at Chelsea, while he won the Europa League and Carabao Cup with Manchester United.

He has also previously managed Portuguese side Porto - where he won the Champions League - Italian club Inter Milan, with whom he claimed a league, cup and Champions League Treble, and Spanish team Real Madrid, who he led to the La Liga title.

Mourinho has been out of work since being sacked as Manchester United manager in December 2018

Not a Spurs fan!! Happy with there choice!! Would have been a bit happier if Big Sam got the job !!
 
Time to wreck another team with his miserable ways etc.
He totally destroyed all moral at united because he thinks he's special.
Cant take away the success hes had at other clubs etc but thats in the past and he needs to change his ways to get the fans on board etc.
 
I never liked him and I think Spurs will regret this one, have they forgot how it ended for him at Man Utd and his 2nd spell at Chelsea, As soon as the first couple of bad results come he will then start to fall out with the press, then it will be another fall out with one or two of the high profile players, thats my prediction anyway, and Spurs fans be prepared for plenty of draws between now and the end of the season, on the bright side there is a possibility yous might get a good run in the FA Cup, maybe even win it, who knows, as for pochettino, he will end up in a good job and make a success of it.
 
He will destroy and poison that club top to bottom.

Levy deserves what will happen to the club by this toxic man.

Feel for spurs supporters.
