It has also been said that Munn’s first job in North London will be to find a new managing director of football, while Fabio Paratici’s consultancy role at the club will likely come to an end.
All of that comes on the back of Ange Postecoglou joining as Tottenham’s new head coach this summer, as well as a transfer window full of player comings and goings.
It well and truly feels like a new era at Tottenham Hotspur, and Postecoglou was asked in his press conference today how it felt to be in the middle of so much change around the club.
Postecoglou welcomes change at Tottenham
Postecoglou said (Football London): Normal for me. Wherever I have gone and I think that is the club understanding, I’ve constantly said that if you want to change, you need to change.
“All these things happen, sometimes not sequential or all at the same time, but over the course of time you find we are heading off in a new direction and some people make their own decisions about whether they’re involved in that and other times we look for, or the club look to bring new people in.
“That’s the kind of position we’re in as a club. As I said, it wasn’t going to take one window for us to build the squad we wanted and it wasn’t going to take a couple of months to have the structure we wanted.
“It will evolve over the next 12 months, couple of years I think you’ll find, and we will have a constant evolution of people and the way we play, the way we train and the environment itself.
“All these kinds of things are a natural consequence of the club deciding to change direction from last year.”
Spurs Web Opinion:
Tottenham have needed this kind of overhaul, from top to bottom, for at least three years now. While it is frustrating to only just be at the start of the process now, it is also exciting to see what kind of journey Spurs can go on over the next three to five seasons.
