Tottenham turn to surprising name in search for new DoF – Club now ‘have a fear’ of losing him

Tottenham have added Genk technical director Dimitri de Condé to their list of potential replacements for Fabio Paratici.

That’s according to Het Nieuwsblad, who say Tottenham are one of several teams ‘monitoring the situation’ of the Belgian.

They explain that sides in England are looking at the 48-year-old, who has been with Genk since 2015 and earned himself as something of a gem finder.

In recent years he’s specialised in finding young talents for the club to develop and then sell on for a major profit, with the club bringing in nearly €300m in various sales under his leadership.

It is that which has led to increasing interest in his signature, with Roma and Athletic Bilbao showing interest in him a few years ago.

Now Tottenham have him ‘on their list’ and are said to be monitoring his situation ahead of a possible move to secure him as a replacement for Fabio Paratici.

They’re yet to move for him or anything of that nature but Genk do ‘have a fear’ that they will lose their technical director this year.
