Tottenham, Stellini sacked after the defeat against Newcastle- Corriere.it

Fatal defeat against the Newcastle: «Devastating performance», declares the club. Instead of him, the deputy Mason, who is only 31 years old. He should have had about ten games available to save the season after the resolution with Conte, instead also for Cristian Stellini, in the end, the roads with Tottenham will separate. This was communicated by Levy’s club, with a very harsh note that appeared on the official website after the sensational 6-1 suffered on Sunday against Newcastle.

The very young Ryan Mason goes on the bench

“The performance was totally unacceptable,” the statement read. “Devastating to see. We can look for all the reasons, but in the end the responsibility is mine », writes Levy: « Cristian will leave the role of him, together with the staff, he has arrived at a difficult moment and I want to thank him. We wish him the best.”

From one deputy to another. Who will take Stellini’s place? The deputy, Ryan Mason. Very young: he has yet to turn 32. But “he knows the club and the players very well,” confirmed Levy. A former Tottenham midfielder, after stopping playing in 2018 due to a very serious injury (a head injury), he immediately began coaching in the youth sector. And now he will have the opportunity to show off, with the club ready to support him: “We want to end the season in the best possible way,” concluded Levy. Which is increasingly complicated, however, with the team in fifth place and with the faint hope of still being able to qualify for the Champions League.
