According to a report from ESPN, Tottenham will grant manager Jose Mourinho a £25 million transfer kitty this summer to bolster his squad in preparation for next campaign – resulting in plenty of Spurs fans reacting to the update on Twitter.
Due to recent events, footballing finances at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium look precarious in regards to ingoing and outgoing expenditure – with chairman Daniel Levy and the Spurs board taking measures in order to save money.
One of these precautions, as per this ESPN report, is to cut Mourinho’s spending power down to a £25 million grant for the summer transfer window – providing an ‘emergency buffer’ amid unprecedented times in north London and around the globe.
However, despite the circumstances, many Spurs supporters have flocked to the update – branding Levy’s supposed move as ‘jackanory‘ among other responses.

I don’t think Mourinho will be around long. He won’t be used to a budget like this, if it’s true
