adminTottenham Hotspur have confirmed the appointment of Tim Sherwood as head coach until the end of next season. Sherwood had been in charge of the team in a caretaker capacity, overseeing a 2-1 defeat to West Ham United in the Capital One Cup and a 3-2 victory over Southampton in the Premier League.
He had expressed a desire to take the job full-time and the news of his appointment was confirmed on the club’s Twitter account on Monday evening.
Spurs chairman Daniel Levy told the club’s official website: “We were extremely reluctant to make a change mid-season, but felt we had to do so in the club’s best interests.
“We have a great squad and we owe them a head coach who will bring out the best in them and allow them to flourish and enjoy a strong, exciting finish to the season.
“We are in the fortunate position of having within our club a talented coach in Tim Sherwood. We believe Tim has both the knowledge and the drive to take the squad forward.”- Soccernet.
