Fabio Paratici's resignation at Spurs has changed the transfer landscape for this summer, with Spurs now joining Liverpool and Manchester United in the search for a Director of Football.
Paratici left Spurs after his global ban from football activity, as a result of dealings during his time with Juventus was upheld. He followed Antonio Conte out of North London and Spurs are now left in the unenviable position of having to hire both a new manager and Director of Football.
Each club at the elite level of football is structured differently, but at present it appears as though Liverpool, Manchester United and Tottenham will all be looking to make a hire to oversee transfer activity. One man reportedly on the radar for both Liverpool and Manchester United is Paul Mitchell, but having previously worked at Spurs, United and Liverpool may see their plans scuppered.
