Spanish outfit Valencia are preparing to sack under-fire manager Javi Gracia and appoint former Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho as replacement, SunSport reports.

Spurs fired Mourinho on Monday, April 19, with just six days to their Carabao Cup final against Man City.

It was gathered that Tottenham decided to dispense the manager after just over a season and a half in charge leaving them in seventh position on the Premier League standings and at risk of missing out on a place in the top four.

And now the Portuguese tactician is already on the radar of Valencia as club owner Peter Lim reportedly made contact with the manager’s agent agent Jorge Mendes.
