"Fabio Paratici will leave his post as Tottenham's joint sporting director after the closure of the January transfer window to take up a similar recruitment job at Fiorentina. The Italian came back to Spurs on a full-time basis in mid-October to work alongside Johan Lange, who was promoted from his role of technical director. Paratici had been Spurs's managing director of football between 2021 and 2023."
"Paratici will return to Italy, partly because of a change to his personal circumstances, and try to help Fiorentina out of the Serie A relegation places. The 53-year-old's departure has been well trailed, with eyebrows raised at the beginning of January when the Spurs winger Manor Solomon cut short his loan at Villarreal to switch to Fiorentina, also on loan."
"Spurs's chief executive, Vinai Venkatesham, said: We have agreed that Fabio will return to Italy following the conclusion of the January transfer window, in line with his wish to move back home. We thank Fabio for his contribution to the club and wish him well for the future. Our management structure is designed to be resilient to personnel changes, and it will be business as usual."
Fabio Paratici will leave Tottenham after the January transfer window to join Fiorentina in a recruitment role and return to Italy. He rejoined Spurs full-time in mid-October to work alongside Johan Lange, having previously been managing director of football between 2021 and 2023 before resigning after a FIFA ban linked to alleged financial malpractice at Juventus. After an appeal he was permitted to act for Spurs on a consultancy basis. Personal circumstances influenced the decision, and he will aim to help Fiorentina out of the Serie A relegation places. Tottenham stated the management structure remains resilient and wished him well.
