Daniel Levy has faced intense scrutiny in recent weeks, with Tottenham Hotspur fans voicing their frustrations over his leadership. However, finance expert Kieran Maguire has offered a different perspective, naming Spurs as the best-run club in the Premier League.
The past few weeks have been difficult for club chairman Daniel Levy who has received his fair share of criticism from fans and pundits alike.
The growing dissatisfaction has led fans to protests twice this season, urging for the chairman to “get out of their club.” Regardless, Levy remains, and his enormous demands even led to the breakdown of talks over a potential takeover.
While criticism has been fired at him, the chairman has also received praise from finance expert Kieran Maguire.
Kieran Maguire praises Tottenham’s financial model
Speaking on the Rio Presents podcast, football finance expert Kieran Maguire named Tottenham Hotspur as one of the best-run clubs in the Premier League.
He stated that the club is the most profitable in PL history, it has a modern stadium, it has the lowest wages-to-turnover ratio and he also took a dig at the club’s barren trophy spell, stating they do not have to pay bonuses for cup wins.
The finance expert said: “Spurs. They are the most profitable club in the history of the Premier League. By far, best stadium. Lowest wages compared to the money coming in.

“As a business, if you take away my football hat and I put on my business hat, it is absolutely perfect. And also, they do not have to pay any bonuses for winning trophies.”
The missing ingredient at Tottenham Hotspur
There is no denying that Daniel Levy and his team have done an exceptional job in managing the business side of Tottenham Hotspur. The club is financially stable and well-structured, but one major issue remains—the footballing side of things.
For all their financial prowess, Tottenham’s lack of ambition on the pitch continues to frustrate fans. If Levy is to win over the supporters, he must show a greater commitment to success on the field.
Investment in top-tier talent and a genuine push for silverware are necessary steps in transforming Tottenham into a club that consistently competes at the highest level.
