Tottenham heading to a golden interval of success, says membership’s technical director
Johan Lange believes Tottenham are in the beginning of a profitable chapter within the membership’s historical past.
Lange joined Spurs in October as technical director and was in a position to oversee a productive winter switch window with Timo Werner, Radu Dragusin and Swedish teenager Lucas Bergvall signing, whereas quite a few fringe gamers left on everlasting or mortgage offers.
Tottenham head coach Ange Postecoglou has spoken extremely of Lange over the previous few weeks and talked up the significance of an alignment working by the membership, which the ex-Aston Villa sporting director echoed.Firstly and really importantly we arrived into the January market utterly aligned, the chairman (Daniel Levy), Ange, Scott (Munn) and myself,” Lange advised SpursPlay.
“You always aim to be stronger after the window and use it to build a squad that is in alignment with the style of football and the methodology. That is not a one or two window job but the club have taken some very important steps in the past six or seven months.
“There’s an awesome power across the coaching floor, across the first group degree, across the ladies’s group, within the academy as nicely. We all consider we’re writing the primary paragraph in what hopefully will likely be a really profitable chapter for the soccer membership.”
Postecoglou urged Tottenham to do their business quickly last month and got his wish with the arrivals of Werner and Dragusin during the first half of the window. However, Spurs did complete a transfer late on with Bergvall agreeing to sign for the club on his 18th birthday from Djurgarden.
Bergvall will officially join Tottenham in the summer after he picked the Premier League membership over Barcelona. Lange added: “We need to be a vacation spot for the perfect younger expertise on the market.
