Tottenham have strengthened their leadership team by establishing Vina, Ventitsam, as the club’s future manager.
The former Arsenal manager will officially begin his role this summer and will have more than ten years of experience in the Gunners’ front office.
The 44-year-old, played a key role in Arsenal’s development on the pitch during his presidency and is now responsible for Tottenham’s public work – both Sporting and business.
“I’m very happy to contact Tottenham Hotspur this summer,” Venkatham told the club’s official website. “After spending time charging and evaluating my options, I think this is a unique opportunity to work with Daniel, the board and the whole staff.

While at Arsenal, he established a strong relationship with foreign authorities such as the Premier League and the ECA, which is expected to continue playing in Spurs.
We are very pleased to announce that Vina Venkat will be the club’s board of directors in the summer as the club’s executive director.
