Contrary to their public stance, the Lewis family would be willing to cash in on Tottenham Hotspur, but only under one condition.
Around a month ago, Tottenham confirmed that they rejected two approaches to buy a stake in the club.
Last week, it emerged that Spurs had unequivocally rejected an expression of takeover interest from American tech entrepreneur Brooklyn Earick.
The consortium headed by Earick is now required to either announce a firm intention to make an offer or that they do not intend to bid before 5 pm on October 24.
The Lewis family will only sell Tottenham under one condition
It is now being reported by Football Insider that the Lewis family would be willing to sell Tottenham Hotspur if their valuation is met.
The report says that it would take a bid of a whopping £4.5billion, which would represent a world-record takeover, for ENIC to agree to give up their control of the club.
The outlet also adds that the profile of any potential investor is also an important factor for the Lewis family.

It was previously reported that ENIC would be open to selling Tottenham to an NFL Franchise owner, which would make Tottenham a bigger combination of sporting assets.
ENIC have sent a big hint about Spurs sale intentions
Tottenham’s majority owners sent a big hint last week that selling the club is not a priority for them at the moment.
Spurs officially ended their relationship with Rothschild & Co, who were appointed by former chairman Daniel Levy in April 2024 to help find potential external investment into the North London club.
The Lewis family have now cut ties with the multinational merchant bank, making it clear that they do not need their financial advice as the club is not for sale.
