Club Statement - Fabio Paratici​

Fri 21 April 2023, 08:10|Tottenham Hotspur


Yesterday - 20 April 2023 - Fabio Paratici was unsuccessful with an appeal against his Italian Football Federation (FIGC) ban on certain football related activities.
FIFA ruled to extend the ban worldwide and, whilst there continues to be a dispute as to the scope and extent of the ban, the current worldwide ban prevents Fabio from fulfilling his duties as our Managing Director of Football. Fabio has consequently taken the decision to resign from his position at the Club with immediate effect to focus on his legal position in respect of the FIGC and FIFA rulings.
Daniel Levy, Chairman: “This has been a stressful time for Fabio and his family. We wanted to ensure that we allowed for due process to be followed. Fabio is a man who lives and breathes football - we wish him well.
“As outlined in our year end results, we started several months ago to restructure our football operations and last week announced the appointment of Scott Munn as Chief Football Officer to head up all the departments. We shall continue to strengthen our football functions over the coming months.”
 
Good. Never thought he fitted us or the direction we should be taking. An improvement on Steve Hitchen but almost impossible not to be. Mediocre in the market, terrible at spotting managers and a football philosophy stuck in Serie A.


His approach and candidates on the manger search in 2021 should have got him the sack alone.
Not the right fit for the club and his transfers were hit and miss at best

The end of the statement makes it seem like we will have a new DOF coming in. Which is good. No need to go back to Levy running football.
