Tottenham Hotspur’s owners, ENIC Sports & Developments Holdings Ltd, have “unequivocally rejected” two takeover offers, declaring the club “not for sale.”
The announcement follows speculation triggered by the recent departure of executive chairman Daniel Levy.
The rejected bids came from Amanda Staveley’s PCP International Finance Limited and a consortium led by Dr. Roger Kennedy and Wing-Fai Ng. ENIC, which holds nearly 87% of the club, stated it has “no intention to accept any such offer to acquire its interest.”
Levy, who served as chairman for almost 25 years, earned an estimated £50 million ($67.5 million) and stated his exit was to help the club “deliver long-term sporting success.”
He expressed pride in his work and said he would continue to support the club.
