Lange joins Spurs from Villa
- Published
Tottenham have appointed Johan Lange as technical director.
Lange has been in the role previously at Aston Villa but will join Spurs from 1 November.
Spurs' chief football officer Scott Munn said: "Johan has demonstrated an excellent track record of scouting and signing many talented and successful youth and senior players.
“He is a welcome addition as we strengthen our football operations."
Lange will be responsible for Spurs' recruitment and talent identification across both their senior and academy teams.
His role at Villa Park changed when ex-Sevilla director of football Monchi joined in June.
"The club can confirm Johan is leaving his role and departs with the best wishes and gratitude of everyone here for his commitment and service during his time," a Villa statement read.
Matthew Kitson will become Villa's new director of global development, working alongside academy boss Mark Harrison and Monchi.
