Poor old Daniel Levy.
The little guy must be mentally frazzled with this new stadium business.
One day he’s merrily micro mismanaging away in his bunker office, the next he’s being offered close to the throwaway remark figure of one billion dollars that Joe Lewis said he wanted for the club.
Gladys tells me that the Cain Hoy offer some of us got excited about in the autumn of 2014 – has recently been pipped.
On this occasion, the current owners of Tottenham Hotspur Football Club, had a preliminary offer of £975m made. The offer came from an American Investment company and the deal was to be bankrolled using Chinese money.
It is Glad’s understanding that the approach was dismissed out of hand and was not even referred to board level for discussion.
It’s difficult to make an appraisal with such sketchy information, but this really sounds like the sort of deal that find Spurs being run by a Vincent Tan type character.
So it’s a ‘no’ from me too.
