Tottenham's new managing director of football is going to have plenty on his plate once he steps through the door at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Not only will he have to make some big changes to the playing squad with incomings and outgoings needing to take place as Tottenham look to challenge for the top four once again, some important calls over contracts must also happen as the Lilywhites plot for the future.
The last thing Spurs want to do is lose some of their stars for absolutely nothing once their contracts come to an end. Tottenham are in a rather dangerous position at present with star man Harry Kane about to enter the final 12 months of his deal.
That means there is the possibility of the England captain, who is valued at £69million by CIES Football Observatory, leaving on a free transfer this time next summer if a new deal cannot be agreed by then. Ange Postecoglou, Daniel Levy and the club will be hoping that is not the case, though, and that the striker can pen fresh terms to keep him in N17 for the foreseeable future.
