Tottenham have not had an approach from Fiorentina despite strong reports in Italy claiming Fabio Paratici is poised to accept a five-year deal from the club bottom of Serie A to become their director of football.
Spurs stood by Paratici, 53, through the embarrassment of a worldwide ban from FIFA for his part in a financial scandal during his time at Juventus.
Paratici was sidelined two years into his role at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in April 2023, and served a 30-month ban that was initially handed out by the Italian football federation, before it was extended worldwide by FIFA.
