Tottenham Chairman Daniel Levy Resigns After 25 Years

Mauricio Pochettino, head coach of the U.S. men's national soccer team and former Tottenham Hotspur manager, expressed shock and surprise at the sudden resignation of Daniel Levy after nearly 25 years as Tottenham chairman. Levy, who played a critical role in transforming Tottenham into a top-tier club and oversaw key developments including the new stadium, was reported to have been removed by the club's majority shareholders amid fan unrest. Pochettino, who maintained a close and positive relationship with Levy during his time at Tottenham, said he reached out to Levy and others close to him but had not received a response. During his tenure under Levy, Pochettino led Tottenham to their highest league finish since the 1960s and to the 2019 Champions League final. The announcement has caused significant impact within the club and the wider English football community, marking the end of an era for Tottenham's leadership. Pochettino wished Levy the best for his personal life and family, emphasizing the shock felt by many who knew him.
