Finance Expert: Tottenham in 'Significant' new investment talks, Levy to bargain hard

Daniel Levy will be negotiating hard to get the best deal for Tottenham after MSP Sports Capital entered talks to buy a 40 per cent stake in the club, according to Dan Plumley.

The investment firm, who have loaned £158million to Everton in recent years for their new stadium, are in talks about investing in the north London club in a deal that could see them take a 40 per cent stake.

Levy is known to be one of the toughest negotiators in the business and when asked about the deal, football finance expert Plumley believes it could eventually lead to a full sale in the future as every club is for sale at the right price.

“Every club is probably for sale at the right price and we’ve seen a bit of that with Spurs over the years, that there has been offers on the table potentially that the club and Daniel Levy don’t feel are the right offer at that point in time,” he exclusively told Tottenham News.

“We know that he will stand firm and he will stick to his principles and his priorities. This will be a significant stake, of course, it doesn’t give full control at 40 per cent but it is an interesting dynamic and we’ve seen MSP clearly in the football market.

“So it’s an interesting one. But as I say, it stands to reason that Spurs and Levy will bargain pretty hard on it if a deal is to be done, and they’ll make sure that it’s the right deal for them.”

Daniel Levy will value Tottenham up there with Chelsea and Manchester United

Tottenham are one of the greatest clubs in the world, with the best stadium in the world and the best facilities, but the on-pitch success hasn’t been there.

When clubs are bought out that is always taken into consideration, as well as their marketability and current revenue streams, and that’s where Spurs outshine everyone.

The stadium in particular is a great income stream with concerts and NFL games held there, while the team are now back in Europe next season on the pitch too.

After seeing Chelsea be sold in a deal more than £4bn and Manchester United selling part of the club at a value of over £5bn, Levy will know Spurs aren’t far off that with the revenue gap closing every year.

MSP Sports Capital will be expecting to pay a big amount to secure that type of stake in a potential powerhouse in the football world, and once they get to 40 per cent that would put them in prime position for a full takeover in the future too.

In other Tottenham news, the club are expected to overtake Manchester United soon after a financial development.
