Steffen Freund new International Technical Coordinator

Set to leave Spurs this summer

The 45-year-old has been on the staff at Spurs since 2012, but he admits he is likely to leave the club this summer, though he revealed he could remain in the English game.

"My tendency goes to taking a new challenge in the summer. Whether in England or in Germany is completely open.

"There have been some interesting talks. To me the perspective is the most important thing, may it be as a sporting director or a coach."

Was he not coaching some African side recently?

We have not used him this season, if he did not fit in with Poch's system he should go somewhere where they value him. I wish him good luck seems like a nice guy.
 
Yawn......

I thought Sherwood (prior to being manager ) was in charge of our development squad. I don't think Freund ever had that post did he?

"Tottenham and Arsenal’s meeting at White Hart Lane on Saturday is generating much excitement, yet it is unlikely the contest will come close to matching the scoring and surrealness of this week’s other north London derby. For those who missed it, Spurs won 7-1 thanks to a hat-trick from an IT consultant while Arsenal’s consolation goal came from a penalty given out of sympathy by the referee Steffen Freund. And yes, it was the Steffen Freund.

The former Germany international is no ordinary official but then this was no ordinary game. Instead, the coming together of north London rivals on a cold Tuesday afternoon at a five-a-side centre in Edmonton was a celebration of a growing and important movement in English football, that of LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) supporters groups. Two of the most prominent are theProud Lilywhites and Gay Gooners and under the watch of Freund, a one-time Spurs player and coach, the former marked their first birthday in style.

In truth, the thrashing of local foe mattered less to those on the winning side – including hat-trick hero Laura Bint – than the fact they had a reason to stage the game in the first place. A year ago, Proud Lilywhites had only 10 members and aspirations of working towards making the experience of watching Tottenham a wholly welcoming and safe one for LGBT fans. Now the group is 130-strong and has an official relationship with the club, one that has led to a rainbow flag being permanently on show at White Hart Lane and group officials maintaining regular contact with Spurs board members.

“Spurs organised for Steffen to be at the five-a-side and regularly allow us to have pieces in the matchday programme and do stuff around the stadium aimed at spreading our message, such as handing out leaflets, which we’ll again do before Saturday’s derby,” says Proud Lilywhites co-chair Christina Paouros. “That’s very important to us and hopefully over the next 12 months our relationship will grow even stronger.”

Gay Gooners have been running for a year longer and boast more than 250 members. They also maintain a strong relationship with their club, one that led to a rainbow banner being in residence at the Emirates – a new one was unveiled before Arsenal’s 5-0 victory over Aston Villa there on Sunday – as well as space being given over in the programme and through other official channels for publicity of the group’s message....."
