Roberto De Zerbi is set to become Tottenham's new manager, a move viewed as a gamble to avoid relegation. His controversial defense of Mason Greenwood raises eyebrows. De Zerbi’s 18-word statement downplaying Greenwood’s alleged rape charges has sparked outrage among fan groups, questioning his judgment. The Italian reportedly signs a five-year deal, making him the Premier League’s third-highest paid manager, with promises of significant summer investment to reshape the squad. De Zerbi’s past with Greenwood includes bringing him to Marseille, where the player netted 21 goals. Greenwood, previously charged with serious offenses, was loaned to Getafe and later sold to Marseille for £26.6 million. Following his signing, De Zerbi called Greenwood a “good guy,” igniting further backlash. Women of the Lane and other supporters emphasize this decision could tarnish Tottenham’s reputation. The “no to De Zerbi” campaign gains momentum as fans express their discontent.
