After five and a half years, Mauricio Pochettino has been fired by Tottenham, the club announced on Tuesday afternoon. His staff, including Jesus Perez, Miguel D’Agostino and Antoni Jimenez have also been let go.
"We were extremely reluctant to make this change and it is not a decision the Board has taken lightly, nor in haste," said chairman Daniel Levy in statement via the website.
“Regrettably domestic results at the end of last season and beginning of this season have been extremely disappointing.
“Mauricio and his coaching staff will always be part of our history. I have the utmost admiration for the manner in which he dealt with the difficult times away from a home ground whilst we built the new stadium and for the warmth and positivity he brought to us.
