I'm always in football.' - Football manager, Jose Mourinho breaks silence after Tottenham sacking
Jose Mourinho has broken his silence after he was sacked by Tottenham Hotspur after just 17 months at the club.
Â
The Portuguese manager was sacked on Monday morning, April 19, less than a week before Tottenham take on Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley. Â
Â
The 58-year-old had been in charge at Spurs since November 2019, signing a deal until the end of the 2023 season. But he was dismissed after a dismal domestic campaign and failure in the Europa League, with the club on course to miss out on Champions League football this season.
Â
Speaking with Sky Sport, Mourinho refused to discuss his departure but disclosed that he doesn't need a break from football.
Â
'You know me. I'm not going to say anything,' he told Sky Sports. 'No need for breaks or recharged batteries. I'm always in football.'
Â
Mourinho leaves Spurs seventh in the table, five points off the Champions League places, and is in line for a huge pay-off of ÂŁ30 million after his sacking.
Â
It has also been revealed that so many other clubs paid Mourinho huge amounts after sacking him midway into his contracts.
Â
Mourinho has had four of his contracts terminated early since he first joined Chelsea - Chelsea in 2007, Real Madrid in 2013, Chelsea again in 2015, and Manchester United in 2018.
Â
The cost of those early terminations is listed in the accounts of each of the English clubs in question.Â
Â
Chelsea (first time): ÂŁ23.07m, Chelsea (second time) ÂŁ8.30m, Manchester United: ÂŁ19.60m. Real Madrid shelled out ÂŁ17 million after sacking him now Tottenham is set to pay him about ÂŁ30m after sacking him.
Â
This means, Mourinho has received an astonishing ÂŁ93.5 million for his sackings during his illustrious managerial career.
