Roberto De Zerbi receives backing of Tottenham's chief executive
Chief executive Vinai Venkatesham has offered his backing to Roberto De Zerbi after Tottenham Hotspur's poor start to the new campaign. Spurs are bottom of the Premier League and winless after five fixtures despite a summer of lavish spending where more than £380 million ($504 million) was committed on new players.
Tottenham Hotspur's chief executive Vinai Venkatesham has expressed confidence in manager Roberto De Zerbi following the team's poor start to the new Premier League season. Despite signing a large number of new players for over £380 million and parting ways with experienced players like Guglielmo Vicario, Djed Spence, and Cristian Romero, Tottenham remains bottom of the table and winless in their first five matches.
Venkatesham acknowledged the disappointment but pointed out that the team has created numerous good scoring opportunities without finding the net. He also noted that the underlying performances have been encouraging since the opening day defeat against Brentford. Venkatesham emphasized that the club's significant changes on and off the pitch might take time to show results, and he expressed belief in De Zerbi, the new players, and the recent improvements in various departments, including medical, physical preparation, and performance.
The club's financial constraints due to rising costs and lack of European revenue have been a challenge, but Venkatesham indicated that significant changes have been made to improve the team's financial situation.
