There really hasn’t been much in the way of good news at Tottenham Hotspur lately.
Spurs are out of every cup competition, are only just hanging on to fourth place, and don’t have a manager.
In addition, Antonio Conte left having dropped several brutal truth bombs about Tottenham.
“Tottenham’s story is this,” he said in his now-infamous post-Southampton press conference.
“Twenty years there is the owner and they never won something.”
And that’s not all. Earlier this week, FIFA extended Fabio Paratici’s ban to worldwide activities.
Meanwhile, exposés of what’s allegedly happening at Tottenham behind the scenes are doing the rounds.
On Wednesday, The Telegraph published an article about what insiders are apparently making of the situation.
Apparently, sources at Spurs rate the current situation as the ‘worst crisis’ Daniel Levy has faced during his time as chairman.
One source at Tottenham reportedly claimed that staff morale ‘is at an all-time low’, while Levy has ‘isolated’ himself.

“On top of all the problems that are obvious for everyone to see,” said the insider.
“Staff morale levels are at an all-time low and Levy has isolated himself. It’s a mess.”
Sticky situation
There’s no doubt this is a crisis, and Levy has a lot of work to do in order to rectify things.
Appointing a new manager can (or will) probably wait now, with an interim team now in charge.
The Paratici situation is the more pressing issue now due to FIFA’s worldwide ban.
His position is now untenable. He will either have to go or, at least, to step aside while an appeal is heard.
It also throws a spanner in the works in terms of finding a new manager, of which Paratici was in charge.
We’ll see what happens but there are certainly some choppy waters ahead.
