Tottenham set to change transfer policy and chase ‘elite players’ after Daniel Levy exit
It has now been revealed that, as part of the new era at Tottenham Hotspur that the owners are trying to usher in, the club want to be competing with elite European clubs to sign the best players in the world.
The news of Daniel Levy’s departure from Tottenham took the supporters by complete shock, with no outlets or journalists catching wind of the monumental development before it unfolded.
Some sources have suggested that the Lewis family are trying to usher in a new era at Spurs and wants to prioritise sporting success.
As a means of doing that, it has now been claimed that the North London club’s transfer policy is about to change drastically.
Cash injection expected at Tottenham as they look to raise the bar
It has been revealed by TEAMtalk that Tottenham’s owners want this to be the beginning of an ‘ambitious new chapter’ at the club, and that is expected to be reflected in the club’s transfer activity.
The Lewis family have set their sights on reaching ‘unprecedented heights’ and want to implement higher standards at the club with a renewed vision of success.
In fact, it is explained that the transfer policy at Tottenham already shifted this summer, with the club targeting readymade players who are ready for the elite level despite initially eyeing younger starlets before the window opened
The report says that a cash injection is anticipated, with Spurs set to target ‘elite players’ across the next two years in order to give themselves a chance of competing for honours against the best clubs in Europe.
Tottenham officials want a change in the perception of the club
TEAMtalk say that high-ranking officials were left concerned by the perception of the club last season, amidst their struggles under Ange Postecoglou.
They are now demanding more from club personnel at every level as they set their sights on striving towards success.
The outlet suggests that we could see the club’s new transfer approach potentially kick into gear in January, with a top-class centre-back and a new attacking player expected to be on Tottenham’s radar.
Rumours are doing the rounds about the Lewis family potentially cashing in on Tottenham Hotspur after Daniel Levy’s exit, and a new report has now shed light on how much it would take for any potential investor to buy Spurs off ENIC’s hands.
Following Levy’s departure on Thursday, The Sun’s Alan Nixon suggested that the Lewis family is now considering a full sale of Tottenham
However, this information has since been contradicted by other sources, who claim that ENIC want to usher in a new era at Spurs, which is focused on sporting success.
A new report has now revealed how much Tottenham’s majority owners value the club at, amidst interest from potential investors.
It would take £4 billion to buy Spurs off ENIC
The Daily Mail now say that even though Spurs insiders deny that Levy’s exit is linked to an impending bid for Tottenham, industry sources are not ruling out a sale.
The outlet claims to have spoken to officials at other Premier League clubs, who believe that Tottenham are ‘ripe’ for a takeover, given their London location and the revenue-generating potential of the club’s stadium.
The report adds that Levy’s astute running of Spurs has left the club’s finances in very strong shape compared to many of their rivals. As a result, it would take around £4 billion to complete a full takeover of Tottenham.
Qatari sources deny Spurs takeover interest
There have been rumours over recent months that private investors from Qatar are looking to buy out Tottenham.
However, The Mail say that sources from the Middle Eastern country have distanced themselves from a move for the North London club.
The report adds that any interest in buying a minority stake or full buyout of Tottenham is likely to come from a US-based investment group rather than Qatar.
