“For me, he is The Special One and always will be,” the Spurs manager told tottenhamhotspur.com. “For me it was a reference when I started to work at Espanyol at the start of my career, he was always very kind with myself, he opened his door.
“In some periods in football, sometimes you struggle a little bit because it’s not easy to arrive at a new club and settle your ideas and your philosophy but for me he was, he is and will be one of the best managers in football history.”
