Tottenham’s search for a new head coach is finally over after Nuno Espirito Santo was appointed as Jose Mourinho’s successor.
Ryan Mason filled in as caretaker boss following Mourinho’s sacking in April, steering the club through to the end of the 2020-21 season.
Former Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino was linked with a sensational return, while Antonio Conte, Paulo Fonseca and Gennaro Gattuso were all rumoured to be on the verge of filling the vacancy at different stages in the process.
However, the London club have instead turned to Nuno after his four-year spell with Wolves came to an end in May.
The 47-year-old Portuguese has signed a deal until 2023 with Tottenham, where he will work alongside new director of football Fabio Paratici.
Nuno earned promotion to the top flight in his first season in charge at Wolves, then followed that achievement with successive seventh-place finishes in the top tier.
Nuno starts his new role amid uncertainty over the future of England captain Harry Kane, with Manchester City reportedly bidding £100million for the prolific striker.
