Levy owns the other part worth nearly a billionSo only 1 billion short then
Far east as well I believe. She's not exclusively a link to the middle east but those deals are what she is mainly known for.
No one that has the money to buy a PL team has any sort of deep knowledge on how to run a team. These types of people dedicate their lives to earning and making money, not football.
Well, when Stevely came to Newcastle they were relegation fodder, the next, they were in the CL spots.
It's sportawashing. They're not going to buy us and not put the best people in place. They'll use us to promote whatever Petro state it is, and they do that through success a la City and PSG. Easier to turn us into a powerhouse than Newcastle because of our revenue as well. If, big of, we get bought out by someone she's connected with, we'll be dining at the top table. The trade off is the moral stand point.
I'd imagine Stavely would do what she did at Newcastle, hire football people.
I'm afraid I'd rather roll the dice on the chance she does have the ability to hire the right people than give ENIC another chance to prove they don't.
No he doesn't. He owns a bit of ENIC. Not Spurs.
No he doesn't, and no it isn't. The only thing he's said, through Jordan, is that no one has offered anything and that anyone talking about it is not judged to be credible.
Exactly
The only way this club can really compete is, with Arab money has to happen.
I thought there were murmurings that this time it was far eastern money?
Bet people think they are proper inbreds when she introduces him.
Amanda: I’d like you to meet Mehrdad, he’s Mehrhusband.
Person: Err ok….
That would be amazing, China hasn't got into it yet, getting backed by them would be huge
The headline fails to mention the report says ENIC are docking them about and don’t know if they want to sell.
FWIW I’ve been saying for months to keep an eye on when staverley can return from a bid and it’s coming up in the next week or so.
Not heard that, think middle Eastern money is the way forward.
Report
And having looked at a sizeable club in which to plunge her and husband, Ghodoussi’s, sizeable wealth into, it has been reported that they have struggling Tottenham Hotspur firmly in their crosshairs.
However, despite a broad agreement on the terms having been discussed, sources can now reveal that the prospective takeover deal has hit a significant roadblock.
The family of Joe Lewis, Tottenham’s former owner, who passed stewardship to the Lewis Family Trust, have had second thoughts about relinquishing ownership of the club, which they have held a majority stake in since 2001.
This hesitation has caused the move to stall, leaving Staveley’s company, PCP Capital Partners, waiting for a positive response.
With the finances in place and a clear ambition to proceed, we have been told that Staveley and Ghodoussi are prepared to look at other opportunities if the situation does not resolve soon.
Sources suggest that while Tottenham remains the priority, the duo’s appetite for top-flight football investment means they will not wait indefinitely for the Lewis family to make a final decision.

Can't they just... Fuck off?
Take the money before the club implodes and its value halves
Newcastle is 12th, and, honestly, I think they're a fair bet to be relegated within a decade.
The ladder has been pulled up behind the financial dopers. There's no way to pull a Chelsea or City any more. The point of FFP/PSR isn't to level the playing field, its to keep anyone from crashing the club.
Happy to have new owners, but hope its not an oil state.
