Tottenham Hotspur have appointed a former Arsenal director as their chief executive in a dramatic boardroom shake-up that raises questions about chairman Daniel Levy's stranglehold on the club.
The Standard first revealed on Friday that Vinai Venkatesham, who was Arsenal’s chief executive for four years until leaving last summer, will fill the newly-created role at Spurs in a move that signals major changes in the way the club is run.
