Tottenham have appointed a replacement for Fabio Paratici as technical director.

Spurs had taken several months to settle on the ideal candidate for the post.

They have now hired Johan Lange as their next technical director, who is leaving his post at Aston Villa.

"We are delighted to announce that Johan Lange has been appointed Technical Director with effect from 1 November, 2023. Lange will have responsibility for recruitment, analytics and talent identification across our senior and academy teams," the Spurs statement read.

"Lange held the role of Global Director of Football Development and International Academies at Aston Villa from June, 2023, having previously been Sporting Director from June, 2020. Lange oversaw several high profile player transfers, a period that saw Aston Villa move to the top half of the table.

"In 2014, Lange, having previously been an Assistant Coach, rejoined FC Copenhagen as Development Director and then Technical Director the same season."
