Former Newcastle United Co-Owner Amanda Staveley to Make Tottenham Takeover Statement

Amanda Staveley will clarify her position amid speculation after Daniel Levy's 25-year tenure ended; any formal Tottenham Hotspur bid would require valuation above 3.5 billion, sources said.

  • On Monday, PCP International Finance, controlled by Amanda Staveley, confirmed it does not intend to make an offer for Tottenham Hotspur after Daniel Levy's exit last week.
  • Daniel Levy's exit last week after nearly 25 years as chairman aimed to refresh leadership, while Tottenham's ownership is complicated by ENIC's 87% stake and UK Takeover Code rules.
  • Staveley's prior Newcastle role and recent talks show she and husband Mehrdad Ghodoussi left Newcastle United in 2024 after holding 10% shares, with recent weeks' discussions involving Roger Kennedy and Wing-Fai Ng's consortium.
  • The club's board has asserted Tottenham Hotspur is not for sale, rejecting offers for ENIC Sports & Developments Holdings Ltd's stake last week; Vinai Venkatesham now leads as Scott Munn is on gardening leave.
  • Under the UK Takeover Code, PCP International Finance could bid if invited by ENIC or rivals bid, but cannot offer within six months; Amanda Staveley said, `My preference would have been to stay with Newcastle, but life doesn’t always work out exactly how you want it to`.
