Under Levy’s leadership, Tottenham competed in European competitions in 18 of the last 20 seasons and delivered significant infrastructure projects. The opening of the world-class Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, a state-of-the-art training ground, and a thriving academy system highlighted the club’s commitment to long-term growth. The pinnacle of his tenure came in the 2024-25 campaign when Spurs ended a 17-year wait for silverware by defeating Manchester United to lift the Europa League trophy.
Reflecting on his departure, Levy said he was proud of the progress made during his tenure and grateful for the support of fans, players, managers, and staff. He emphasized that Tottenham had become both a global force and a strong community, pledging to continue his support for the club as it enters a new phase.
Peter Charrington, who has joined the board as Non-Executive Chairman, paid tribute to Levy’s commitment and loyalty to the club. He described the transition as the beginning of a new era of leadership, with a focus on stability and empowering the club’s executive team led by Vinai Venkatesham.
As part of a carefully planned succession strategy, Tottenham recently appointed Venkatesham as Chief Executive Officer, Thomas Frank as men’s head coach, and Martin Ho as women’s head coach. These changes reinforce the club’s ambition to strengthen its leadership across all levels.
Attention now shifts back to the pitch, where Spurs resume Premier League action against West Ham on September 13 after the international break. Supporters will be eager to see how the refreshed leadership structure shapes the next chapter in Tottenham’s history.
