It seems Tottenham Hotspur are not done recruiting new staff to assist Ange Postecoglou. Now, the club will apparently hire a new chief scout to work alongside technical director, Johan Lange.
In what has been a period of great upheaval at the club, Tottenham have welcomed an abundance of new faces through the door, both on and off the pitch.
New signings like Guglielmo Vicario, Micky van de Ven, and James Maddison have proven to be welcome additions to the playing staff at Spurs and have helped the side remain unbeaten in the first eight games of this campaign.
And, of course, new manager Ange Postecoglou has been a driving force behind this positive start, bringing exciting football back to the club and putting smiles on the faces of the Spurs fans.
But, behind the scenes, it’s all change, too. Scott Munn has now started work as the club’s chief football officer, and Johan Lange is in as the new technical director.
Spurs have another appointment to make
While Lange is billed as the successor to Fabio Paratici, it seems he will end up getting some help in the form of a chief scout.
That’s according to a report from the Evening Standard, which claims Lange will “not be in charge of running the club’s entire football operations,” as his predecessor was. Instead, he will report to Munn, and have duties related only to “recruitment, analytics and talent ID.”
The recent departure of Leonardo Gabbanini leaves a gap in that department, and Spurs are expected to “appoint a new chief scout” to work under him.
When that happens, and who it will be, remains to be seen.

I really like the look of this team we are putting together to make sure the whole operation runs smoothly from top to bottom. It seems the power and responsibility are being shared across various heads rather than one man having all the control, which feels like a smart move.
