Tottenham could get a Qatari owner. What does this mean for Levy?
Tottenham’s ownership has been a major point of frustration for fans, who are even planning a protest against the club’s leadership. However, a change at the top could be on the horizon—though not an immediate one.
Details: According to The Guardian, a group of unnamed Qatari investors, reportedly including Qatar Sports Investments and Sheikh Jassim—who attempted to buy Manchester United two years ago—is considering acquiring 87% of Tottenham’s shares from the Enic consortium. However, they would not take full control immediately, as the acquisition would be structured as a phased buyout over time.
For now, executive chairman Daniel Levy could remain in his role, as the prospective new owners value his experience. However, this decision is likely to be met with opposition from supporters.
Reminder: Tottenham fans have already announced plans for a protest against Levy during the upcoming match against Manchester United.
