London, England – E be like say Tottenham Hotspur don change gear well-well as dem announce say Daniel Levy don japa from him position as executive chairman after 24 years of holding the fort. Imagine the guy don dey run the show since March 2001, abi na new man we go dey see now? (The man wey don tire to carry club for head.)
Levy wey sabi as to manage club matter, na him dey spearhead the squad since ENIC group buy Tottenham. E lead dem through thick and thin, and na under him watch say dem win two major cup: the EFL Cup in 2008 and the Europa League last season. (No be small thing to wait 17 years for trophy, but we fit manage am.)
“I dey very proud of wetin I don do with my team and all di staff, we don build dis club to global heavyweight level,” Levy talk as him dey exit. E go still dey support di club with im whole heart. This guy sabi difference between work and paddy-paddy, no be so?”
Dem go now hand over di chairmanship to Peter Charrington, wey don join di board as non-executive chairman. Dis guy dey ready to carry di matter next level, we hope sey no be wahala go dey. Charrington don talk say na new era for di club, and dem go put system wey go make everything dey stable. (E be like say dem dey plan am well-well.)
Losing Levy no be small news, as many fans don dey vex for him matter before. Last season, protest don dey happen, people dey wave banner dey shout “Levy dey greedy, we wan glory!” Dem dey vex as Levy no fit bring enough hustle when e come to squad spending, e just dey manage with wetin dem fit generate from di new mega stadium wey dem don build.
Tottenham Hotspur Stadium wey open for 2019 don become source of revenue from concerts and boxing events, but fans dey feel sey Levy no dey fully use am to strengthen di team; right now, dem just dey play manage-manage. (2 trophies in 24 years? Na wah o!).
Dis summer don bring plenty changes as well, with dem sacking ange Postecoglou just two weeks after dem win di Europa League. E get as e be, Thomas Frank don come in as di new head coach, while some oga from di club dey japa too, like Scott Munn and Donna-Maria Cullen. E be like sey na clean slate dem dey try arrange.
Charrington promise say e go focus on di future and make di club dey bring out talents wey go carry di team enter dem desired next level. Dem dey plan to fit put dem house for order before dem next match against West Ham on September 13, and we no dey hope sey dem go bring home any European glory. No be say we too dey expect much sef, but who know wetin fit happen?
For Levy, time don reach for change, and whether fans go hail or boo di change, na dem go decide wether dis new leadership go fit take dem to di glory dem dey yarn about. All we fit talk be sey, another era don start for Tottenham, and we dey ready to see wetin go happen next.
