Tottenham hold takeover talks with two parties after Daniel Levy exit and £5bn rumour

Two different consortia are currently locked in talks with Tottenham Hotspur regarding a takeover of the club, one of which is headed by former Newcastle United chief Amanda Staveley.

It has been suggested by some sources that following Levy’s exit, the Lewis family could look to sell Tottenham.

Others have contradicted that claim, suggesting that ENIC’s priority is on-pitch success at Tottenham rather than a sale, with the Lewis family keen to spearhead a new era at the club.

However, despite these suggestions, it has now emerged that ENIC are indeed speaking to potential investors who want to take Spurs off their hands.

Amanda Staveley and the American consortium are in talks with Tottenham

Football Insider say that, according to an industry source, talks are ongoing in the background regarding a takeover of Tottenham Hotspur.

The outlet says that the Spurs ownership are in simultaneous talks with two different parties. One of them is thought to be a Qatar-based consortium spearheaded by Amanda Staveley, while the other is said to be an American group.

There is no information in the report on how close a potential takeover deal is, but it is revealed that the revenue-generating potential of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is a key factor in the interest from investors.

It would take a monumental offer to buy Tottenham

It is not clear whether these negotiations are regarding a minority investment or a full buyout, but either way, interested parties will have to pay handsomely to agree a deal.

Football Insider say that Tottenham are valued by their owners at a whopping £5 billion, which is considerably more than the £4.25 billion Todd Boehly spent to acquire Chelsea from Roman Abramovich.

This update comes on the back of Fabrizio Romano revealing a couple of days ago that a takeover of Tottenham is potentially one to watch over the next few weeks.
