When Daniel Levy took over as Tottenham's chair in 2001 I was introduced to him by Alan Sugar and promised that, as director of football, I would help him get his feet under the table as quickly as possible. The club he leaves behind almost 25 years later is one many players from around the world would love to be part of. Daniel very swiftly understood the difficulties of running a big football organisation with so much emotion attached.

But the following season he was on the bench more for Manchester City and, despite winning his fourth Premier League title, was sold to Chelsea, the first marquee signing of their new owners. This move hasn't worked out at all. Now, aged 30, Sterling faces a season in exile at Chelsea, the 30m remaining in wages on his contract a key factor in the stalemate.

Miquel, 41, helped Leicester finish 10th in the WSL last season - their highest ever placing - with 20 points from 22 games, and 10 points clear of relegated Crystal Palace. She won five of her 22 league matches, and secured two more points than in the 2023-24 season. The club confirmed Miquel's assistant Amaury Messuwe will also leave with immediate effect but are yet to announce a replacement, with Leicester opening their WSL season against Manchester United on 7 September.
