Tottenham Sacks Interim Manager, Cristian Stellini
Premier League side, Tottenham sacked it’s interim manager Cristian Stellini on Monday after Sunday’s 6-1 defeat at Newcastle.
Stellini, who was only put in charge last month after his former boss Antonio Conte left the club, will be replaced by Ryan Mason with immediate effect.
Conte’s long-term assistant won only one of his four games in charge, dealing what appears a fatal blow to Spurs’ chances of Champions League football next season.
Tottenham still sit fifth in the Premier League but are six points adrift of the top four and have played at least one game more than the sides directly above them.
A difficult season hit a new low at St James’ Park as Spurs were 5-0 down after just 21 minutes.
“Sunday’s performance against Newcastle was wholly unacceptable,” said chairman Daniel Levy in a club statement.
“Cristian will leave his current role along with his coaching staff. Cristian stepped in at a difficult point in our season and I want to thank him for the professional manner in which he and his coaching staff have conducted themselves during such a challenging time.”
