Tottenham Hotspur not only lost Mauricio Pochettino when they sacked the Argentine last month, but the manager’s entire backroom staff too.
This included the beloved Jesus Perez, who had served as Poch’s number two since he arrived in North London over five years ago.
With Mourinho having been out of work for 11 months and coming into a club with a lack of staff, it was up to him to appoint his own Assistant Head Coach.
He went for Lille coach Joao Sacramento, who has now given his first interview since joining Spurs.
"When you come to Spurs, you don’t need too much time to understand how big this Club is."
