David Ornstein has shared what he heard about Tottenham Hotspur and their search for a new director of football.
The Athletic reporter, answering fan questions in the Q&A section on the website, said he had been informed that Spurs had a plan in place.
In addition, Tottenham is considering a “relatively quiet” appointment to this position.
Spurs have been operating without a director of football since Fabio Paratici resigned in April.
His decision followed FIFA’s ban on all football activities, which was later reduced on appeal. According to The Athletic, Tottenham have also appointed a director of football, with Scott Munn finally taking over the position last week.

“I don’t have a name but the last I heard the appointment is expected to be relatively low-key – a bit like Postecoglou – rather than a huge name.
“The club will hope the new man fits in fairly seamlessly to the new structure being implemented by Daniel Levy and Scott Munn.”
Our view
Tottenham have come a very long way since May, when they ended the season without a permanent manager, a director of football, and European competition.
Now, Spurs have a superb manager in Ange Postecoglou, one of the first in a long time who seems to fit the club perfectly.
The Australian has brought in some great players and has brought the best out of the ones who were there already, including fringe players.
Tottenham are playing exciting football, are a lot more solid at the back, and are getting wins.
Now, for the final touches to the boardroom. Munn has finally arrived, and hopefully a good DoF will also come to N17 soon.
