Tottenham Hotspur have identified Sevilla sporting director Monchi as a potential successor to Fabio Paratici.
An Italian appeals court upheld a 30-month worldwide ban against Fabio Paratici on Friday morning, prompting him to resign from Tottenham's director of football position.
Tottenham eye Monchi as Paratici successor
According to 90min, Spurs have been looking for a successor to the Italian since he was first charged in 2022 despite publicly claiming FIFA's decision caught them off guard.
Tottenham director of football leaves role after failed appeal
One name that is emerging as a serious contender is Monchi, who is likely to leave Sevilla at the end of this season following a disappointing and testing domestic campaign.
The 54-year-old rose to prominence initially with Sevilla, helping oversee a period which saw them gain promotion back to La Liga and establish themselves as one of the continent's most successful teams.
He joined Roma in 2017 but only spent two years in the Italian capital before making a swift return to the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.
There is a very real possibility that Tottenham will pair Monchi with compatriot Luis Enrique, who is considered among the top candidates to succeed Antonio Conte as Tottenham manager.
