Reports have surfaced indicating that Amanda Staveley and her partner, Mehrdad Ghodoussi, are in discussions about leading a significant investment in Tottenham Hotspur, potentially backed by a consortium of Middle Eastern funds.
According to Football Insider, these talks could bring substantial financial backing to Spurs, marking a new venture for Staveley, a prominent British businesswoman with close ties to Middle Eastern investors.
Staveley, known for her instrumental role in the Saudi-led takeover of Newcastle United in 2021, helped orchestrate the acquisition and secured a 10% ownership stake alongside the Reuben Brothers and Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF). Earlier this year, however, Staveley and her husband sold their remaining shares in Newcastle, reducing their stake from 10% to 6% before stepping away from the club entirely.
Their attention now appears to have shifted towards Tottenham.
The potential investment in Spurs could be transformative, with Football Insider suggesting that the consortium Staveley and Ghodoussi are heading may inject “huge” funds into the club.
Such backing would provide a substantial financial boost, enabling Tottenham to compete more fiercely in both domestic and European competitions.
As Tottenham continues to build momentum under the leadership of manager Ange Postecoglou, this financial influx could further elevate the club’s ambitions.
The investment may strengthen their ability to attract top-tier talent, improve infrastructure, and challenge for major trophies.
For Tottenham, which has long sought to establish itself as a dominant force in football, this move could be a critical step in achieving its long-term goals and securing future success.
Fans will be watching closely as discussions progress, eager to see whether this potential deal could help propel Spurs into the upper echelons of world football.
