Brett appointed Director of Performance Services at Tottenham

Adam Brett has been appointed Director of Performance Services for Tottenham and will oversee their sports science, medical, nutrition and psychology provision across men’s, women’s and Academy.

Brett worked for Brighton for more than a decade before exiting as Head of Performance and Medicine in August 2023. He had joined the Seagulls in February 2014 as Head Physio and was promoted to head up a unified medical and performance department in July 2020, replacing Tom Barnden.

However, Brett exited following a revamp by Sporting Director David Weir and Head Coach Roberto Di Zerbi and was replaced by Gary Walker. At Tottenham, he replaces Geoff Scott, who stepped down as Head of Medicine and Sports Science last month after 20 years with the club.

Reporting into Brett will be new Head of Sports Science Nick Davies, who left West Ham at the end of last season. The Welshman is hugely experienced, having also worked for Charlton, Birmingham City, Norwich City and West Brom.

He had also been Head of Performance for the Wales men’s national team since March 2023, but has now left that position to focus on his role at Tottenham.

Writing on LinkedIn, Davies said: “Quite an eventful few months! Having left West Ham, I have joined Tottenham Hotspur. I will also be finishing my time with the Wales team. What an honour and privilege to have represented my nation.”
