Yes, Daniel Levy is actively looking to sell his shares in Tottenham Hotspur. More precisely, he holds approximately 29-30% stake in ENIC (the parent company that controls about 86-87% of Tottenham Hotspur FC). Recent reports from early 2026 (including as of February 5, 2026) indicate he is in discussions or seeking buyers for this minority stake, valuing it at around £1 billion.

Key details from reliable sources: Levy was ousted as Tottenham’s executive chairman in September 2025 by the Lewis family (majority owners via their trust).

He is reportedly negotiating with a consortium including Hong Kong businessman Ng Wing-Fai (and possibly others like US investor Brooklyn Earick teaming up), with most funding from Asian tycoons.

Some reports suggest an agreement could be close or even concluding soon, though Levy has reportedly dismissed claims of being “close” to a specific deal in one instance.

The Lewis family (who control the majority of ENIC) have no first refusal or matching rights on his shares, so they cannot block a sale to a third party—though they retain overall control of the club regardless.

Buying Levy’s stake would give no control over Tottenham (it’s a minority position in ENIC), and the Lewis family insist the club itself is not for sale.

Commentators like Simon Jordan have indicated the sale is “100% happening,” with the Lewis family possibly pressuring or interested in buying it themselves if no suitable external buyer emerges.

This stems from Bloomberg (late January 2026), The Telegraph, The Sun, SportsPro, and others, with updates as recent as February 5, 2026.

No final sale has been confirmed yet—it’s still in the “talks” or “looking for buyers” phase—but the intent to sell appears clear and ongoing. This could mark the end of Levy’s long financial ties to Spurs after over 25 years. For Tottenham fans, it means potential shifts in ownership dynamics but no immediate full takeover of the club.
