This Jeff Vetere character sounds like an absolute cretin!

After reading about him I’m more surprised and concerned that he was hired in the first place than that he was sacked after 5 months.

That’s the 2nd of the new structure to leave already.

Add that to the Manager targets Paratici was said to be in favour of (Gattuso, Nuno etc)

I’ve gotta say I’m concerned. Fabio seems to be good at identifying players under valued by the market but everything else that is public does not fill me with confidence and that’s without even mentioning the charges in Italy

Yeah reading the article it sounds like we are well rid of him and he was only appointed as one of Paratici’s mates. I think he has a bit of a chequered past. Another nail in Paratici’s coffin at the club perhaps?

Totally agree.

And he's also the guy that said "no" to Ten Hag - what a terrible error of judgement

EDIT: apparently he wasn't and I got that wrong, I take it back

"Meanwhile, Spurs are said to be restructuring their academy recruitment after Chris Perkins, emerging talent manager, quit to join Arsenal in January."

I wasn't aware of this until now. :(

This was a few weeks ago, probably in youth thread.

I think the impression was that he decided to leave because of the proposed restructure. But who knows!
