Tottenham: Daniel Levy 'replacement' at Spurs Vinai Venkatesham is former Arsenal chief

Daniel Levy, the well-known executive chairman of Tottenham Hotspur, known for his tough negotiating skills, departed suddenly, raising questions about how the club would fill the void left by his exit.

Vinai Venkatesham has been appointed as the new chief executive of Tottenham in April, less than a year after leaving his role as CEO at Arsenal, where he spent a total of 14 years, signaling a significant shift in leadership.

Staff and supporters at Tottenham can expect Venkatesham to bring his experience from Arsenal, where his legacy includes three key achievements: playing a role in appointing Mikel Arteta as manager, which transformed the club's on-pitch performance; committing to the growth of Arsenal's women's team and expanding the sport's platform; and leading the club through the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, demonstrating resilience during uncertain times.
