Jose Mourinho’s Tottenham backroom staff confirmed with additions of Joao Sacramento and Nuno Santos

Mourinho could bring a different group in his latest job to shake things up

Jose Mourinho is back after replacing Mauricio Pochettino at Tottenham Hotspur.

Manchester United paid Mourinho and his staff around £20m to leave Old Trafford last year.

The move to ditch Pochettino will cost Daniel Levy a similarly exorbitant figure.

Mourinho has a trusted group around him, though he has lost Rui Faria, his long-time assistant, who left United in 2018 after 17 years alongside his mentor.

Joao Sacramento will be his assistant manager, with Nuno Santos to become goalkeeper coach, both joining from Lille. Who else will join Mourinho at Spurs?

Mourinho said earlier this year that he intends to assemble a different group of staff.

“I’m thinking, I’m studying, I’m producing things all the time,” Mourinho said.

“I go to different sports and I analyse them, I meet my future staff because my future staff is going to be different than my previous because I think it is the moment for a few changes.”
