Tottenham sack manager Jose Mourinho
Tottenham Hotspur are set to sack manager Jose Mourinho on Monday after being called up by club chairman Daniel Levy.
Spurs’ latest 2-2 draw with Everton on Sunday left them seventh in the Premier League, five points behind the top four with six games to play.

According to The Telegraph, Levy has decided that it is time to act and divorce Mourinho, despite the fact that his team has the Carabao Cup final with Manchester City to compete in on Sunday.
Levy is implied to see drastic action as the only possible response to the club’s latest poor form, which has Spurs on the verge of missing Champions League football once again.
First-team coaches Ryan Mason and Chris Powell are expected to take charge of the cup final and the rest of the season while Spurs begin the hunt for a new full-time manager.
The same outlet already reported in February that RB Leipzig boss Julian Nagelsmann, who is also in Bayern Munich, has been earmarked as Spurs’ dream contract.
