Tottenham Hotspur are taking internal action against a newly hired scout after he made social media jokes about his lifelong support for rivals Arsenal.
Tottenham Hotspur are considering disciplinary action against new academy scout Neros Coachman following controversial social media posts.
The boyhood Arsenal fan reportedly joked about wearing a base layer to prevent the Spurs badge from touching his skin.
Club officials are “deeply unimpressed” by the comments, which surfaced shortly after he joined the North London rivals, leading to an immediate in-house investigation into his conduct.
While some viewed the interactions as lighthearted jest, Spurs supporters flagged the posts as a significant lack of respect.
When asked how he managed to wear the Tottenham tracksuit, Coachman replied: “It was tough.”
The UEFA B Licence holder now faces an uncertain future at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as leadership weighs further action regarding his “shhhhh” response to comments about being an insider.
