Juande Ramos has revealed for the first time why he has decided to leave Sevilla for London to join Tottenham after Tottenham sacked Martin Jol.
Ramos said: "My heart will remain in Nervion (the area of Seville where the club's ground is located) but for my family and my profession it is impossible not to leave for London.
"After the excellent period that Sevilla has enjoyed fate has dictated that my path now takes me on the most ambitious challenge I've ever faced."
In the statement on his personal website the 53-year-old added: "To the red and white family of the Sanchez Pizjuan (Sevilla's stadium) I only say to you that I could go very far away but, Sevillista friend, I assure you, that nobody will ever be closer to you."
Sevilla confirmed his departure: "Juande Ramos appeared on the third floor of the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan (stadium) to present a document in which he asked for his contract to be rescinded under clause 1006/85 at 22.35pm (local time).
"Ramos was accompanied by his physical trainer Marcos Alvarez, who presented the same document to the general director of the club, Jose Maria Cruz, in the presence of Ramon Rodriguez Monchi, the club's sporting director."
