However, questions have been asked whether staying at the club is the right thing for his career. A player of his talent should be competing for the biggest trophies, but he has never won one with Spurs. This reasoning has been the driving force behind rumours of a summer move to one of the European giants.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The project in north London is now at a crucial stage, with the club settled into their new stadium and attracting a string of top managers. However, none of these managers have been able to get Spurs any closer to ending their trophy drought. One criticism has been of Chairman Daniel Levy, and his inability to deliver each manager&#8217;s top transfer targets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"fr3RxJ4HSZRey5974dc_SA\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1319630247\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'fr3RxJ4HSZRey5974dc_SA',sig:'dqJUv5FPdrTWmDYu0qMj0Bq3BlXlTx9wEZAzaRuYZVQ=',w:'594px',h:'423px',items:'1319630247',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Changing the Narrative Around Spurs<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Spurs fans, and Daniel Levy, will be hoping to change this narrative over the next two transfer windows.
