Daniel Levy statement in full as Tottenham confirm new ownership structure

Daniel Levy has resigned as Tottenham chairman with immediate effect. Levy, who was the longest-serving chairman in the Premier League , had been at the helm for nearly 25 years.

"I am incredibly proud of the work I have done together with the executive team and all our employees," Levy stated on the club website.

"We have built this club into a global heavyweight competing at the highest level, more than that, we have built a community.

"I was fortunate enough to work with some of the greatest people in this sport, from the team at Lilywhite House and Hotspur Way to all the players and managers over the years.

"I wish to thank all the fans that have supported me over the years. It hasn't always been an easy journey but significant progress has been made. I will continue to support this club passionately."

Levy played a key role in appointing new Spurs head coach Thomas Frank, following the departure of Ange Postecoglou despite the club's success in the Europa League last season.

Tottenham announced that there would be "no changes to the ownership or shareholder structure of the club," with Peter Charrington joining the board to take on a newly created role of non-executive chairman, upon announcing Levy's departure.

A club statement read: "As part of its succession planning, the club has made a number of senior appointments in recent months.

"Vinai Venkatesham was hired as chief executive officer, with Thomas Frank as our new men's head coach and Martin Ho as women's head coach. Peter Charrington joined the board and will step into the newly created role of non-executive chairman."

Charrington praised Levy's efforts in advancing the club, including securing a new stadium and Champions League participation, having reached the final in 2019 where they suffered defeat to Liverpool .

"I am very honoured to become non-executive chairman of this extraordinary club and, on behalf of the board, I would like to thank Daniel and his family for their commitment and loyalty to the club over so many years," Charrington said.

"This is a new era of leadership for the club, on and off the pitch. I do recognise there has been a lot of change in recent months as we put in place new foundations for the future.

"We are now fully focused on stability and empowering our talented people across the club, led by Vinai and his executive team."
