- Three Tottenham fan groups have urged the club to reconsider any potential appointment of Roberto De Zerbi as manager.
- The opposition stems from De Zerbi's past public defence of Marseille forward Mason Greenwood, who faced serious allegations.
- Greenwood was charged with attempted rape, controlling behaviour, and assault in 2022, but these charges were dropped in 2023 due to withdrawn witnesses and no realistic prospect of conviction.
- De Zerbi previously described Greenwood as a 'good guy' who had paid a 'heavy price', stating he knew a 'totally different person'.
- Fan groups, including Proud Lilywhites, Women of the Lane, and Spurs Reach, argue that De Zerbi's comments downplay the seriousness of male violence against women and conflict with the club's values.
