While Tottenham confirmed Daniel Levy's departure from his post as president on Thursday, replaced by Peter Charrington following the owners' desire to start a new cycle, Mauricio Pochettino admitted to having been surprised to learn the news. The Argentinian coach had a solid relationship with the English leader during his visit to the Spurs bench between 2014 and 2019.
“I learned the news about Daniel Levy yesterdayhe explained at a press conference the day before the friendly match against South Korea. I am a little in shock because he was my former president. I don't know what happened. Of course, I sent him a message, as well as to different people who were very close to him. I still haven't received an answer (from Levy). I have no more information. What I mean is that I wish him the best for his life and for the time he spends with his family. My relationship with him has always been very good. I have been shocked, like many people who know him. ”
