The owner of Tottenham, in place for almost 25 years, privately opens the door to a sale of the club. Nasser Al-Khelaïfii received the information recently and Qatar intends to take advantage of it.
Owner through his company ENIC and president of Tottenham since 2001, Daniel Levy is considering for the first time slamming the door of the London club. In recent years, he had considered the possibility of selling part of his club's shares, as Manchester United did recently, to revitalize Spurs and provide them with new resources. Nasser Al-Khelaïfi then came forward to invest 10% in Tottenham, which corresponded to Qatar's ambitions to develop and reach the Premier League. This ultimately did not happen, but a violent backlash took place in January, reveals Football Insider.
Contact resumed in January 2025
Indeed, on the sidelines of discussions between PSG and Tottenham for the future of Randal Kolo-Muani, contacts were renewed between the two presidents. And now QSI is very interested in taking over Spurs outright, now that the door is open and weariness seems to be taking over for Daniel Levy, a fan of the north London club since his first attended matches in the 1960s.
Former president of Everton, Keith Wyness told SI that Qatar had made Tottenham their big future target. “ There is no doubt about Qatar's interest. A club in London, which has big assets with a new stadium, they like that a lot. They want to develop this type of club, which is already well established. Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, I met him several times, he is a very reasonable person and he knows very well that his choices depend on the long-term strategy for QSI, but Qatar and Tottenham, it clearly fits »launched the Scottish businessman, former general manager of Aston Villa.
-Main problem at the moment is not the valuation of the club at 4.5 billion euros, but rather multi-ownership with two clubs capable of competing in the Champions League, which is not authorized simultaneously. . An obstacle far from being insurmountable and which does not prevent QSI from seriously thinking about making a new big investment in football, almost 15 years after buying PSG.
