Andre Villas-Boas has been sacked by Tottenham following yesterday’s 5-0 thrashing by Liverpool.
Sportsmail’s Neil Ashton reported yesterday that the Portuguese manager survived a crisis meeting with chairman Daniel Levy and technical director Franco Baldini after Spurs’ humbling at home but the news broke at 11am this morning that the Portuguese boss’ contract had been terminated.
The Spurs chairman is already sounding out potential replacements and Sportsmail has learnt that he favours an experienced coach with World Cup pedigree. Fabio Capello, who was at White Hart Lane on Sunday performing TV duties, out-of-work Gus Hiddink and Glenn Hoddle and three high-profile names in the frame.
