Kane: Levy has been a 'fantastic chairman' for Tottenham

Levy aimed to reinforce Tottenham by targeting Rodrygo for a £100 million fee to boost the squad after their Europa League win before his departure ended a 24-year tenure.

  • According to Defensa Central, last week Daniel Levy was reported to have been willing to offer �100m for Real Madrid winger Rodrygo before his exit.
  • Levy stepped down after a review that followed nearly 24 years at Tottenham Hotspur, with the club aiming to build on last season's Europa League triumph for the 2025/26 season.
  • The fee would have set a new club record since Dominic Solanke's �65m, with Rodrygo making 272 appearances, scoring 68 goals, and providing 51 assists for Real Madrid.
  • The Tottenham board confirmed it had unequivocally rejected two expressions of interest in ENIC and insisted the club is not for sale, while Vinai Venkatesham said succession plans keep operations as business as usual.
  • Sources say Rodrygo could still leave in the January transfer window, with Arsenal and Manchester City among suitors; Tottenham manager Thomas Frank may yet get another chance to sign him.
