Where in the world is Joao Sacramento?

Tottenham Hotspur have a new manager, and with it comes new assistant coaches. One of those is Joao Sacramento, Jose Mourinho’s chief deputy, whom he hired from a similar role at Lille in Ligue 1.

There’s an interesting piece in the Athletic about Sacramento, who seems very similar in profile to other coaches who have served under Mourinho, including Raul Faria and Andre Villas-Boas — he’s young, a tactics prodigy with a strong work ethic, and has never actually played the game professionally.

But that’s not why we’re here today. He also has what is quite possibly the best name in football.
