As per Twitterati football ace Fabrizio Romano, Fabio Paratici is set to make his debut in North London this week, and in true CEO genius style, Daniel Levy has allegedly delegated the task of finding the club with a billion-pound stadium… a manager.
Quite how speculative this is remains to be seen, but the optics are terrible. Shipping in a player scout and asking him to scout a first-team coach gives off the impression of unmitigated chaos. You may as well ask Prince Charles to officially open the stadium – and when he arrives, ask him if he knows how to wire in a dishwasher.
My view is that these are Daniel Levy’s end of days at Tottenham and Joe Lewis isn’t likely to indulge much more of what is brand wrecking activity. Tavistock Holdings is a vast operation, and it wouldn’t take much to trigger a bigger game of musical chairs.
