- Spurs reject two takeover offers
- Announced the club is "not for sale"
- Ex-Newcastle director interested in takeover
Spurs dropped a bombshell last week when they formally announced the departure of Levy. The British businessman was pushed aside after serving the club for over two decades. Under his stewardship, توتنهام became a globally-recognised football institution and, most recently, they won the الدوري الأوروبي to end a 17-year-long wait for silverware.
Following Levy’s exit, there were speculation that Spurs could be up for sale now. According to سكاي سبورتس former Newcastle joint-owner Amanda Staveley was keen on a takeover of the north London club, however, after discussions with the UK takeover watchdog, Staveley will formally announce that she does not intend to bid for the Magpies’ الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز rivals. A Chinese consortium is the other party who expressed an interest in a takeover.
Late on Sunday, Spurs released a formal statement to clarify that they have rejected two takeover offers as current owners ENIC do not intent to give up their majority stake in the club. The statementread: “The Board of Tottenham Hotspur Limited is aware of recent media speculation and confirms that its majority shareholder, ENIC Sports u0026amp; Developments Holdings Ltd, has received, and unequivocally rejected, separate preliminary expressions of interest in relation to proposals to acquire the entire issued, and to be issued, share capital of ENIC from PCP International Finance Limited and a consortium of investors led by Dr. Roger Kennedy and Wing-Fai Ng through Firehawk Holdings Limited.
“The Board of the Club and ENIC confirm that Tottenham Hotspur is not for sale and ENIC has no intention to accept any such offer to acquire its interest in the Club.”
Spurs have made a strong start to their 2025-26 campaign under new manager Thomas Frank, as they have won two out of their first three Premier League games and are currently fourth in the table. They will next face London rivals وست هام away from home on September 13.
