Daniel Levy continues to engage in investment discussions at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Despite his efforts to boost the club commercially, both Levy and ENIC, Tottenham’s current owners, remain unpopular with many fans due to frustration over the lack of on-pitch success.
Tottenham already have the infrastructure in place to become a footballing powerhouse, yet the progress hasn’t matched their potential. According to finance expert Stefan Borson, Amanda Staveley’s appointment of a voluntary liquidator to dissolve her company won’t affect her pursuit of a stake in Tottenham. Borson explained to Football Insider that Staveley is likely representing other investors through a different entity.
How it effects the club
A recent filing with Companies House on 14 October confirmed that Redstart Leisure Limited has passed a special resolution to wind up the company, and a voluntary liquidator will soon be appointed.
Redstart Leisure was notably involved in the Saudi-backed takeover of Newcastle United in 2021, where Amanda Staveley secured a 10% stake in the club. Additionally, Staveley’s other company, Apollo Belvedere Services (formerly known as PCP Capital Partners), was liquidated in September. Despite these developments, finance experts suggest that Staveley’s bid to acquire a stake in Tottenham Hotspur will likely continue through different investment channels.
It isn’t clear exactly how much of the club Staveley and her team are looking to purchase. However, if it is a significant amount, it could make acquiring a majority share more straightforward in the future.

Amanda Staveley, 51, recently visited Tottenham’s executive boxes, sparking speculation. Football Insider reported on 1 October that she is actively advancing plans to secure a significant investment backed by Middle Eastern funds. While it’s uncertain what this could mean for chairman Daniel Levy, it’s no secret that the club is open to new investment. With that in mind, it’s not unreasonable to believe that discussions about a potential full takeover, whether internally or externally, have likely been considered.
