No Jol compo deal, says Spurs chief

TOTTENHAM chairman Daniel Levy has issued a statement denying that a compensation package has been agreed for Martin Jol to leave White Hart Lane.

Jol’s position as boss has appeared under threat since Spurs officials met Sevilla coach Juande Ramos last month, and Levy was linked with a move for Jose Mourinho when the ‘Special One’ left Chelsea.

With Ramos understood to be staying in Spain for the time being and Mourinho ruling out a move to an English club as his “next step”, there are no obvious candidates to take over should Jol depart.
