Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly decided to change a key policy that the club had for decades under Daniel Levy.
We could learn a lot about the new Spurs leadership during the January transfer window, which will be the club’s first transfer window in almost a quarter of a century with no Levy at the helm.
The Tottenham top brass have certainly talked the talk ahead of the window. It has been widely reported that ENIC want to make some statement signings to signal their ambition.
The club have now made a big decision that will aid them in their efforts to secure top talent.
Tottenham set to push up their wage structure ceiling
Football.London’s Alasdair Gold has now revealed that Spurs CEO Vinai Venketesham is discovering that the job on his hands at the North London club is much more challenging than he initially thought.
The Spurs chief is expected to follow a similar blueprint to the one that brought success to him at Arsenal.
It is revealed that the Tottenham leadership have decided to push up the ceiling on their wage structure ahead of the transfer window.
The club have done this to give themselves a better chance of competing for top-end talents, who will demand top dollar to come to N17.
However, Gold points out that Tottenham will still have challenges attracting world-class talent as the club’s current position does not make them an attractive proposition for big players.
Spurs are willing to pay big transfer fees in January
This update by Gold comes on the back of reports suggesting that Tottenham are willing to make big investments in key positions across the squad.
According to some sources, Thomas Frank will be handed a transfer war chest of £150m for January to reinforce his squad.
However, the Spurs head coach has been non-committal about the club’s January objectives, suggesting that the Lilywhites will only act if the right opportunities present themselves over the coming months.
