Tottenham announced on Monday they had sacked manager Nuno Espirito Santo and his coaching staff.
Fabio Paratici, managing director of football, said: “I know how much Nuno and his coaching staff wanted to succeed and I regret that we have had to take this decision.
“Nuno is a true gentleman and will always be welcome here. We should like to thank him and his coaching staff and wish them well for the future.”
Spurs were defeated 3-0 by Manchester United on Saturday — their fifth league defeat in 10 matches.
