I don’t know if he actually did something for Sampdoria, but it was suggested in this article:
"Paratici was spotted in Milan today and while he is technically banned from working as a director at Tottenham after the Juventus capital gains scandal, he can still be a consultant for Sampdoria."
Radrizzani's Sampdoria includes Grosso and Paratici - Football Italia
Sampdoria are building their new club with the Andrea Radrizzani takeover, including Fabio Grosso as coach, Nicola Legrottaglie as director and former

Your point pretty much stands either way.
Let’s just hope he is as good as the analytics when applied to football players

Minute 4 is key for 3 reasons:
1”Ange is crystal clear about the strategy and style of play and type of characters he wants”
2”We are fully aligned as a club”
3”The is not just about Ange it’s about an overall club strategy for now and the future”
1 ticks the here and now with Ange
2 ticks having CEO,Sporting Director, Head of Recruitment and Coach all aligned”
3 ticks setting a foundation for the future of the club with a consistent playing style philosophy and focus on youth
First time possibly ever under Levy that we’ve had all 3 of these boxes
being ticked.Exciting times.
He speaks well, says all the right things.

A really good interview.
I think he nails it that every issue cannot be resolved in one window but this doesn't mean the club can't be proactive in looking into many targets.
I've always been of the view that when we're in a strong position, 1 first team squad player is good for January and I hate any panic buying of a player that might be slightly better than one of our weakest players but will soon be the next player we need to upgrade on.
Our current committee are showing that quality reinforcements can be obtained.

I'm all in favour of analytics and data, but alongside the eye test, not to replace it. Also there's the player's character and so on.

I highly doubt we'll stop actually watching the players we're interested in.

I'm sure we'll still watch them, but getting rid of scouts clearly means we'll be doing it less.

Last time we went analytics heavy we ended up with Stambouli

The data analysis is used to identify and screen players who are then watched by scouts. The aim is two fold: to consider a wider pool of potential new signings than could be done if the initial screening was done by scouts; and to then have scouts spend more time watching those players identified by the analysis.

One would think that we will replace them with those who are more accustomed to working with a data led approach.
