Spurs chairman Daniel Levy mourns “things have not worked out” with Jose Mourinho

Daniel Levy, the Tottenham Hotspur chairman has voiced his regret that things didn’t actually worked out with the Portuguese mastermind Jose Mourinho at the club. The English giants sacked “The Special One” today just after 18 months of appointment at the London based club.

Talking to the media, the Spurs chairman conveyed, “On a personal level, I have enjoyed working with him and regret that things have not worked out as we both had envisaged. He will always be welcome here and we should like to thank him and his coaching staff for their contribution.”
