Football finance expert Dan Plumley believes that Tottenham’s decision to move to a new stadium in 2019 could soon pay dividends for Daniel Levy and ENIC.Over the last 12 months, there have been plenty of rumours doing the rounds regarding a potential sale of Tottenham Hotspur.It has been rumoured that a group of private investors from Qatar have shown interest in a takeover of Spurs, but much to the consternation of the Tottenham supporters, nothing has materialised so far.Just last week, one source claimed that Spurs were in talks over selling a minority stake in a deal which values the whole club at £5 billion.Photo by SpursWebDan Plumey claims Tottenham owners could soon get a massive payoffPlumey is in no doubt that Spurs are one of the most highly valued football clubs in the world, explaining that the revenue-earning potential of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium makes them very attractive to investors.Reacting to a report from Football Benchmark, who ranked Tottenham in their top 10 most valuable clubs in the world, at a value of €3.659bn (£3.12bn), the finance expert insisted that a takeover from Qatar is very much on the cards.Plumey told Football Insider: “I’ve always said on record over the last few years, and that valuation for Spurs and pushing that into the Football Benchmark top 10 as an example, is purely around stadium income and the upshot of that.“We’re starting to see the benefits already of that stadium move for Spurs, and we said years ago, what that could bring to them. They are in that bracket. I know they’ve had a poor season on the pitch apart from Europa League success, but they are in that bracket of clubs that would command that kind of valuation in and around £3-4 billion; they’re in that group of clubs.“And if you look at who else is in that group of clubs, there are not many of those at the minute that are likely to change hands, and there’s certainly not one that you could look at in terms of what a sovereign state might be after.“So, Qatar and Tottenham always seemed plausible to me, and of course, I think it’s still there in the background from what we’re hearing, and it does put them in that bracket, as I say, of clubs that would command that valuation.“I think it’s likely that we still see those noises or at the very least, that deal is something that would be attractive to somebody. I stand by the fact that I think Tottenham’s an attractive investment proposition.”Why a Tottenham takeover might not be around the cornerTottenham’s value as a club is only going to increase over the next five to 10 years as the club’s stadium debt reduces.There is thus no reason for Levy and ENIC to accept a low-ball offer right now. Based on the way the Tottenham chairman negotiates, we know that he will likely hold out for a massive offer.Spurs fans who are expecting a takeover to be completed soon are thus likely to be disappointed. What is far likelier in the short term is a minority investment into Tottenham, with the potential sale of around 10 to 25 per cent of the club.READ MORE: Tottenham staff left surprised by Daniel Levy’s lack of accountability last weekThe post Expert believes £4 billion Tottenham Hotspur takeover could happen appeared first on Spurs Web.
