Andre-Villas Boas has today been confirmed as Tottenham\'s new head coach. The 34-year-old\'s appointment marks his return to the Premier League just four months after his departure from Chelsea, where he was sacked eight months into a three-year contract. Villas-Boas will be hoping to rebuild his reputation at Spurs after succeeding Harry Redknapp, who left the post last month after four years at the helm. Tottenham will not compete in the Champions League after losing its place because Chelsea, which finished sixth in the league, beat Bayern Munich in the final to win last season\'s competition and qualify for this year\'s edition. Tottenham will instead play in the Europa League, which Villas-Boas won with Porto in 2011. A post on the club\'s official Twitter account read: \"The club is delighted to announce Andre Villas-Boas as head coach.\"
