After a long experience in Turin, he was for a season assistant coach of Ajaccio, in France, then again athletic trainer of Catania and of the Chinese clubs of the Jiangsu Suning and Guangzhou Evergrande. Ventrone returned to Europe in 2021 called by Antonio Conteknown when the current Spurs coach was a Juventus player. He strongly wanted him at Tottenham, and, with him in London, he had perfected the athletic preparation of the Spurs. This summer his training had knocked out the entire London team during the Asian tour in South Korea. In essence, Ventrone’s working methods had proved to be truly exhausting. Even the British newspaper Sun had called his endurance training “brutal running sessions”. The newspaper then documented a day of Tottenham training in the Asian country. The fatigue, the paper explained, had been so much “that Harry Kane was sick in the sticky dampness of South Korea.” Even the winger, former Juventus, Kulusevski had that day forfeited after half an hour for a calf problem, while initially the others had given the impression of doing well, despite the heat. At that point Ventrone had asked the players to do 42 laps of the field. In the end, everyone collapsed to the ground, even the local idol Son Heung-min who had done everything to resist so as not to make a bad impression in front of his compatriots.
