Segers leaves Spurs

The staff exodus at Tottenham following Martin Jol’s sacking last night has continued today with goalkeeping coach Hans Segers leaving the club with immediate effect.

Jol and long-serving assistant boss Chris Hughton were asked to step down last night before overseeing the side’s 2-1 defeat at the hands of Getafe, with Sevilla boss Juande Ramos thought to be the club’s number one target.

Whoever does take the job looks likely to have the chance to bring his own staff to White Hart Lane after Jol’s fellow Dutchman Segers, a former goalkeeper with the club, was asked to vacate his post.

Sporting director Damien Comolli said: “Hans has been a committed and enthusiastic member of the coaching staff and we should like to thank him for his contribution and hard work.”

Academy goalkeeping coach Perry Suckling will take the role on a temporary basis.
