Daniel Levy as Tottenham chairman

Levy has overseen contrasting fortunes at the North London club during his stint as Tottenham chairman since 2001. Spurs were mostly considered an upper-mid-table club during the 2000s and early 2010s. However, the Tottenham chairman appointing Mauricio Pochettino in 2014, drastically changed the club's fortunes as Spurs started battling for top honours in the UK.

With the help of Pochettino and several shrewd acquisitions, Tottenham Hotspur have had a sustained period of success on the pitch. Although it did not translate into trophies, Spurs came second in the Premier League in 2017 and have finished in the top four since the 2015-16 season. Pochettino also helped Spurs to a runner-up medal in the Champions League.

After Pochettino was sacked last year, Spurs made headlines by appointing three-time Premier League winner Jose Mourinho as the new head coach of the club.
