General manager Paul Mitchell, the “hand of God” who recruited Son Heung-min during his time at Tottenham, left AS Monaco.
Fabrizio Romano, a European transfer market expert, announced the resignation of General Manager Paul Mitchell of Monaco on the 3rd. Thiago Scuro was appointed as the new CEO on behalf of Mitchell,' he said.
General manager Mitchell is rumored to return to the English Premier League (EPL). Rumors have been circulating that he has been connected to Manchester United for months.
Mitchell did not blossom as a player, but he was a great scout. He is famous for his philosophy of recruiting only players under the age of 24.
Having enjoyed recruiting Sadio Mane, Nathaniel Klein, Doosan Tadic and Maya Yoshida from Southampton, he settled in Tottenham in 2014. Tottenham transfused Son Heung-min, Dele Alli, Kieran Trippier and Toby Alderweireld.
Son Heung-min is the best work. Son Heung-min transferred from Leverkusen to Tottenham in August 2015. In his ninth season with Tottenham, he has scored double-digit goals in the EPL every season except his first.
In particular, he became the first Asian player to win the EPL Golden Boot (top scorer) in the 2021-2022 season. He was named Tottenham captain this season.
Leadership is extraordinary. Tottenham's prospects have been dark due to Harry Kane's transfer, but they have not lost a single EPL game so far.
He ranks second in Manchester City (6 wins, 1 loss, 18 points) with five wins and two draws (17 points). Son Heung-min also changed his position to one-top and scored six goals in seven games, ranking second in the scoring category in Erling Holland (Man City, eight goals).
Mitchell is recognized for his ability to scout the world's best young talent. Son Heung-min was not easy to adapt to the EPL in the first season.
Mitchell came under all sorts of criticism but was unwavering. And he claimed to Son Heung-min that “he will be recorded as a great player in Premier League history,” and it became a reality.
Manchester United fans strongly want Mitchell to be recruited. Fans are pouring out articles on SNS, such as “the person Manchester United needs” and “recruit immediately.”
