Tottenham Hotspur owners inject £100m to boost long-term ambitions | OneFootball

Tottenham Hotspur’s majority owners, ENIC Group, have injected £100m of new capital into the club in a move designed to strengthen its financial foundation and support long-term sporting growth, BBC Sport reports.

The investment, announced on Wednesday, comes from the Lewis Family Trust, which controls ENIC and holds an 86.58% stake in the north London club. The remaining shares are owned by a group of minority investors. Spurs said the new funding will “equip the club’s leadership team with additional resources to continue the focus on driving long-term sporting success.”

The Lewis family’s influence has grown markedly in recent months following a period of boardroom reshuffling, including the departure of former chairman Daniel Levy in September. Although Levy retains a 29.88% stake in ENIC, he no longer holds any operational role at the club.

A source close to the Lewis family described the £100m as “initial additional funding,” adding that further investment could follow depending on the club’s strategic requirements. “The Lewis family is committed to backing the club to be successful,” the source said.

The injection comes amid speculation over potential takeover bids, with American tech entrepreneur Brooklyn Earick’s bid the latest to be rejected, with Tottenham reiterating that the club is not for sale.
