Daniel Levy responds to Tottenham takeover talk and if he would be tempted to sell the club

Daniel Levy has stated that Tottenham are not in negotiations with anybody regarding a potential takeover of the north London club. At the turn of the year, Spurs were in the headlines regarding the possibility of Qatar Sports Investments investing in the club and Iranian-American billionaire Jahm Najafi was also mentioned regarding a takeover worth £3.1billion.

football.london reported in January that Levy and QSI head Nasser Al-Khelaifi had met in a London hotel and the subject of investing in the club was discussed among other topics, although the club categorically denied that was the case. Levy and PSG owner Al-Khelaifi have been friends for years, having dealt with each other in the transfer market on a number of occasions as well as through the European Club Association, with the pair understood to meet up whenever their paths place them in the same city at the same time.

Amid the previous talk of a potential takeover of Tottenham, Levy, when speaking to Cambridge Union on Tuesday, March 14, was quizzed on the reports and if a bid came in for the club would he be tempted to sell.
