The Londoners have had a mediocre season in the Premier League and they were disappointed in the European competition as well.
There have been rumours that Mourinho would not be at the club next season but it seems that Spurs will not wait any longer and they have decided to pull the trigger right away.
Apart from the poor results, Mourinho has been heavily criticised for his treatment of players like Dele Alli and Harry Winks this season. The two midfielders have barely played for Mourinho this season.
The decision to sack the manager comes days before Tottenham’s Carabao Cup final against Manchester City.
The Carabao Cup is Tottenham’s best chance of winning a trophy this season and it will be interesting to see if they can finish the season on a high.
According to the Telegraph, first-team coaches, Ryan Mason and Chris Powell are in line to take over from Mourinho for the remainder of the campaign. It will be interesting to see who comes in as a permanent replacement at the end of the season.
The likes of Julian Nagelsmann have been linked with the club in recent months.
Meanwhile, Tottenham confirmed their participation in the European Super League last night and they are one of the six Premier League clubs who have signed up for the breakaway tournament.
Some of the Tottenham fans have taken to Twitter to share their thoughts on the departure of Mourinho and here is what they had to say.
why before the final though, this board man
