OFFICIAL: Tottenham appoint Nuno Espirito Santo as new head coach

It had been rumoured for a while, but Tottenham have now made it official. Nuno Espirito Santo will take the reins at the helm of the club, after both parties reached an agreement following several conversations on the matter.

Spurs announced the arrival of Nuno on their social media channels, with Portuguese signing a two-year deal with the club. He took Wolves to their best ever Premier League finish since 1980 and led them to the Europa League quarter-finals in the 2019/20 season.

"First of all, I’d like to welcome Nuno to the Club. We should like to thank our supporters for all their patience throughout this process. I’ve spoken already about the need to revert back to our core DNA of playing attacking, entertaining football and Fabio and I believe Nuno is the man who can take our talented group of players, embrace our young players coming through and build something special,” said chairman Daniel Levy.

Nuno, for his part, assured that he would make sure the fans feel "proud" and that they "enjoy" what they see on the pitch. "It’s an enormous pleasure and honour, there’s joy and I’m happy and looking forward to starting work," he said.

That being said, there are certain sectors of Tottenham support that are against his appointment. The topic '#NoToNuno' was trending on Twitter just a few days ago, although the club will be hoping this is just a small portion of fans.
