JOSE MOURINHO has been slammed by Lille boss Christophe Galtier for pinching his coaching staff to take with him to Tottenham.
Galtier sarcastically hit out at “classy” Mourinho for taking Joao Sacramento and Nuno Santos from Lille to Spurs.
Galtier has hit out at Mourinho for poaching two members of staff from Lille
Sacramento will serve as the Special One’s No2 in North London, while Santos will take on the role of goalkeeping coach.
Mourinho is close friends with Lille sporting director Luis Campos and has regularly been seen their games since being sacked by Manchester United last December.
And it appears the Portuguese boss has used his ties to the club to lure a couple of members of staff away from the Ligue 1 giants.
But Galtier was left fuming, saying: “Everyone has their own way of doing things.”
He sarcastically added: “But it’s really classy. Really classy to act like that.”
Mourinho has now even been linked with signing pal Campos – but Lille’s president Gerard Lopez has warned the Portuguese chief he won’t be successful.
Lopez revealed: “Luis and I, we are colleagues but above all friends and we are working on a project together with a huge trajectory.
“And the project is far from finished. He will not leave the club. He stays with us.”

And Galtier had his say, adding: “Luis is 200 per cent invested in the project and I don’t see a thousandth of a wish to look elsewhere. We’re close and looking forward.”
Campos has been responsible for unearthing some of the top talent in world football during his career.
Kylian Mbappe, James Rodriguez, Fabinho and Bernardo Silva are just a few gems he has unearthed.
