Former Tottenham owner threatens legal action over comments made live on Sky Sports

Alan Sugar has launched a furious attack on Jamie Redknapp following the pundit’s latest comments about Daniel Levy’s time at Tottenham, with the former Spurs chairman making it clear he will be taking further action.

Tottenham Hotspur have begun the post-Daniel Levy era in the best way possible after their 3-0 victory over West Ham United at the London Stadium.

Members of the new Tottenham board were in attendance for that win, with representatives of the Lewis family and new CEO Vinai Venkatesham all present to witness the start of this new chapter.

It feels significant, as talk of more ambition continues to spread in the media, with supporters eager to see genuine change at the north London club, especially now that the Levy era has finally drawn to a close.

Alan Sugar hits out at Jamie Redknapp over Tottenham comments

Daniel Levy may have faced constant criticism from Tottenham supporters during his long reign for his lack of ambition on the pitch, but the former chairman did deliver financial stability off the pitch, ensuring profits and growth during his tenure.

However, Jamie Redknapp recently suggested that when Levy first took charge, Alan Sugar had left Tottenham in a difficult position, and those words did not go down well with the ex-chairman.

Sugar hit back strongly on social media, blasting the former Spurs midfielder and making it clear that he intends to take the matter further.

In his post, Sugar wrote: Jamie Redknapp is a double barrel idiot. He talks a load of rubbish. He said when Daniel Levy took over Spurs Alan Sugar left the club in a right mess. He and SKY will be hearing from my lawyers Monday.”

Spurs fans focused on the present under Thomas Frank

While Alan Sugar looks to take further action, Spurs fans are firmly focused on the present and what the future may hold under this new structure.

The supporters want the Lewis family to show ambition beyond just words, as promises have already been made, but the real measure will come in the transfer market when financial backing and intent are put to the test.

For now, life under Frank has provided optimism, the recent victory only adding to that sense of belief, and the next transfer windows will reveal whether Spurs are truly ready to step into a new era.
