Mokwena respects Kane after Tottenham Hotspur sack Pochettino

After sacking Mauricio Pochettino, Tottenham Hotspur replaced their former manager with Jose Mourinho on Wednesday morning.

The managerial changes sent shockwaves around the world, including in South Africa where high profile coach Rulani Mokwena shared a comment on social media.

Mokwena was impressed with Spurs striker Harry Kane's respect for his former coach. The former Mamelodi Sundowns assistant coach retweeted Kane's post and also added his own comment in a new Tweet (see below).
