Tributes continue to pour in for Daniel Levy, who exited Tottenham after nearly two-and-a-half decades at the helm, with Heung-min Son becoming the latest to react to the news.
Tottenham are venturing into the unknown, with the post-Levy era now underway in North London.
The news of his sudden departure came as a shock to many, but Tottenham fans will be excited to hear that the Lewis family now want to usher in a new era of sustained on-pitch success at Spurs.
Former Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino admitted that he was shocked by Levy’s departure and confessed that he is in the dark as to what led to it.
Heung-min Son reacts to Daniel Levy’s Tottenham departure
Son has now expressed similar shock at the 63-year-old leaving his post after 24 years in charge.
The former Tottenham captain, who completed a move to Los Angeles FC earlier this summer, was reluctant to say too much about the development publicly.
However, Son did thank Levy for his help during the decade he spent at the North London club and wished him well for the future.
He said: “It’s not the right place to be talking about the departure of my chairman, I was there for ten years – I think he deserves more than me just speaking here.
“Look, he was there for 25 years, I think he did an unbelievable job, I wish him all the best for the future in whatever he’s going to do, but I’m really, really grateful for what he did for me.”

Spurs fans warned over Levy’s departure
Many Tottenham fans are delighted with this news, as they saw Levy as the hurdle to the club winning major trophies.
However, former Spurs manager Harry Redknapp has insisted that Levy was unfairly criticised for ENIC’s decisions, adding that he never had any issues working with the 63-year-old.
Meanwhile, Simon Jordan has warned Tottenham fans to be careful what they wish for following the exit of the club’s long-serving chairman.
