'I can't believe it. This isn't for big clubs like Tottenham': Harry Redknapp SLAMS his former boss Daniel Levy for slashing wages of 550 non-playing staff amid the coronavirus pandemic

Harry Redknapp has launched a thinly-veiled assault on his former boss Daniel Levy following the Tottenham chairman's decision to slash the wages of non-playing staff.

It was announced earlier this week that Levy would use the Government's furlough scheme and that 550 Spurs employees would have to take a 20 per cent pay cut while football remains suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Not only did this coincide with the club releasing their financial figures, which revealed that Levy earned an extra £3million on top of his $4m salary for overseeing the completion of the club's new stadium, but Tottenham's players are also for the time being still earning their wages in full despite them on average pocketing a mammoth £70,000 a week.
