Harry Kane has described Daniel Levy\u2019s departure from Tottenham Hotspur as a surprise while praising the chairman\u2019s record and wishing him well. The former Spurs star and current Bayern Munich striker told the media during England duty that he did not anticipate the move and acknowledged the clear transformation at the club during Levy\u2019s tenure.<\/p>\n
There are largely two schools of thought among Spurs supporters since the announcement. Some remain frustrated by what they view as limited investment in the playing squad. Others point to the significant off-the-field progress the club has made. Kane aligned with the latter view and underlined Levy\u2019s role in that development.<\/p>\n
\u201cObviously, it\u2019s a bit of a surprise, if I\u2019m honest,\u201d Kane said. \u201cI didn\u2019t expect it, didn\u2019t see that coming.<\/p>\n
\u201cDaniel has been a fantastic chairman for Tottenham in the 20 years or so he\u2019s been there. Considering where the club was and where it is now, I think it\u2019s been a big change, not just on the pitch, but off the pitch as well.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt any stage there\u2019s always going to be change in clubs, and change in the higher positions. Obviously I don\u2019t know too much about why or what happened. All I can say is I wish Daniel all the best in whatever\u2019s next for him. We obviously built a relationship over the time we had together. I\u2019m sure at some stage we\u2019ll catch up.<\/p>\n
\u201cOverall for Tottenham, it\u2019s a new chapter they\u2019re trying to create now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Levy\u2019s exit has triggered speculation about Tottenham\u2019s future ownership, with at least two parties reported as having expressed interest in a possible takeover, including former Newcastle United shareholder Amanda Staveley. Tottenham have publicly rejected suggestions the club is for sale, insisting that all approaches have been unequivocally turned away.<\/p>\n
Kane\u2019s comments framed the departure as unexpected but respectful, and he left open the prospect of keeping in touch with Levy while noting the club is entering a period of change.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
