Tottenham chief scout Leonardo Gabbanini has left ahead of further structural changes at the north London club.<\/p>\n
Italian administrator Gabbanini has played a key role over the summer in identifying targets and acting as a conduit between intermediaries and the club.<\/p>\n
In a hectic few months that saw managing director of football Fabio Paratici leave following an investigation into financial irregularities in Italy and Ange Postecoglou appointed as new head coach, Gabbanini has been a key figure for the club over the summer.<\/p>\n
But with changes afoot internally, Gabbanini has now left Tottenham.<\/p>\n
The club are yet to appoint their new sporting director, but sources claim the candidate will be in situ imminently.<\/p>\n

Scott Munn, formerly of City Football Group, has started his role as chief football officer.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has revealed that he is open to selling a stake in the club.<\/p>\n
In a complex ownership structure Tottenham are 87 per cent owned by ENIC Sports, of which 29.9 per cent of those shares belong to Levy, with the remaining 70 per cent owned by members of the Lewis Family Trust.<\/p>\n
And while Levy insists he has no desire to leave he told Bloomberg: ‘I’ve got no real interest to leave Spurs but I have a duty to consider anything that anyone may want to propose. It’s not about me, it’s about what’s right for the club.<\/p>\n
‘We run this club as if it’s a public company. If anyone wants to make a serious proposition to the board of Tottenham we would consider it, along with our advisers, and if we felt it was in the interests of the club we would be open to anything.<\/p>\n
‘If we get the right naming rights partner \u2014 and when I say that, I mean somebody who pays the right money in the right sector \u2014 then we are willing to consider doing it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘But we’re not as tied to doing it now as perhaps we would’ve been when we first looked at building the stadium.\u2019<\/p>\n
