Daniel Levy at risk of Tottenham exile amid £6bn takeover claim
Levy under fire as takeover bid claims £6bn for Spurs
Daniel Levy's future at Tottenham is under threat after a sensational report claimed the club could be sold for a staggering £6 billion.
The Athletic claims that Levy has been in talks with a consortium of investors about a potential takeover, with the asking price believed to be in the region of £6bn.
The news comes amid a period of turmoil for Tottenham, who have endured a disappointing season on the pitch and have seen their finances hit by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Levy's position under scrutiny
Levy has been in charge of Tottenham for over 20 years and has overseen a period of significant growth for the club.
However, his position has come under increasing scrutiny in recent months, with fans calling for his resignation following a series of poor results.
The news of a potential takeover will only add to the pressure on Levy, who could now be forced to step down if the deal goes through.
Who are the potential buyers?
The Athletic claims that the consortium of investors interested in buying Tottenham is led by Iranian-American businessman Jahm Najafi.
Najafi is the founder and CEO of Najafi Companies, a private investment firm. He is also a minority owner of the Phoenix Suns NBA team.
The other members of the consortium are not known, but it is believed to include a number of high-profile individuals from the world of business and finance.
What does this mean for Tottenham?
If the takeover goes through, it will represent a new era for Tottenham.
The new owners are likely to invest heavily in the club, which could lead to a period of sustained success on the pitch.
However, there are also concerns that the new owners may not be as committed to Tottenham as Levy, who has been a lifelong fan of the club.
Only time will tell what the future holds for Tottenham, but the news of a potential takeover is sure to have a major impact on the club.
