'Mourinho one of the greatest' - Wolves boss Nuno full of praise for former manager ahead of Spurs visit

Jose Mourinho is "one of the greatest managers" in the game, says Nuno Espirito Santo, with the Wolverhampton Wanderers boss saying it will be a "pleasure" to welcome his former Porto boss to Molineux when Tottenham visit this wekend.

The pair worked together at the Primeira Liga outfit over a decade and a half ago during the latter's playing days, where they were domestic and European conquerers with a Champions League triumph.

They have faced each other before in their managerial careers too, playing out a 1-1 draw last season at Old Trafford during Mourinho's Manchester United tenure, but the pair will now cross paths for the first time since the ex-Real Madrid and Chelsea supremo took charge of Spurs.
