Spurs chief RESIGNS after failing to secure naming rights deal for new stadium

  /  autty

Todd Kline – the man Tottenham brought in to land a naming rights sponsor for their stadium – has resigned.

The American was brought to the club in 2021 with high hopes of bringing in a lucrative partner. However, close to three years on, a deal remains elusive and Mail Sport understands he has now stepped down from the role of chief commercial officer.

In 2016 Kline was key to an 18-year naming rights for the Dolphins stadium in Miami which saw entertainment venue Hard Rock shell out a reported £180m.

But his time in north London has seen a substantial turnover within his department with many long-serving and well-liked members of staff leaving the club.

And with the stadium still without a sponsor, it has appeared for some time that the writing was on the wall.
