Post Malone fans will have to wait before they see the American artist at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

It was announced that Post Malone was to perform at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium back in February.

However, due to the scheduled tube strikes on 7 September and 8 September, the dates have been moved.

Tottenham News brings you all the information about the singer’s rescheduled shows.

Post Malone at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium: New dates and ticket refunds

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has played host to Thomas Frank’s side over the last few weeks, with a win and a loss for the North London club.

However, it was meant to be Post Malone’s turn to perform at Spurs’ home, following in the footsteps of Imagine Dragons and Catfish and the Bottlemen.

Now, the singer’s shows have been moved to 20 September and 21 September because of the planned tube strikes.

Live Nation have stated that without a tube service, it is impossible to get concert goers to the event safely, meaning an event license could not be granted.

Tickets for the 7 September show will remain valid for 20 September, while tickets for 8 September are valid for 21 September.

Those who are no longer able to attend the rescheduled events must contact their point of purchase before 10am on 8 September to receive a full refund.

Refunds will be sent back to the payment method used and could take 14 to 21 days to process, depending on your bank.

Refunded tickets for Post Malone will go back on sale

While many will be frustrated that they can no longer attend the event, others can now benefit from the news.

That is because any tickets that are returned will be placed on general sale to the public via Ticketmaster on 9 September.

Like Post Malone, Coldplay were forced to reschedule their show at Wembley Stadium for the same reason.

It is advised that anyone still planning to travel to London this weekend checks their journey beforehand.

Tottenham could copy Chelsea and Man City before going down sale route – Simon Jordan

Tottenham could copy Chelsea and Man City before going down sale route – Simon Jordan - tottenhamhotspurnews.com
Description

Daniel Levy may have only just left Tottenham, but there has been significant talk about the North London club’s future.

Former Spurs manager Harry Redknapp has praised Levy for his impact, while others are pleased he has gone.

Now that he has vacated his post, some believe that Levy’s decision will trigger a takeover at Tottenham.

Indeed, Simon Jordan believes that the events that have transpired at Man City and Chelsea suggest that a sale is on the cards.

Tottenham could follow in Chelsea and Man City’s footsteps

Levy’s exit from Tottenham means that a takeover is seemingly more likely, especially if he was resistant to the idea.

MORE SPURS STORIES

The 63-year-old was a divisive figure during his time in North London, with supporters holding regular protests against the perceived lack of investment.

This summer, the Lilywhites did complete some expensive deals, with Mohammed Kudus and Xavi Simons arriving for over a combined £100million.

However, their spending has been nowhere near the scale of City and Chelsea, who have spent substantially over the years.

Indeed, Jordan believes that what has happened at those two clubs means that Tottenham are for sale.

“If you look at Man City and you look at Chelsea, they’ve spent money like drunken sailors to achieve things, and success has created inherent value for the football club,” he said on talkSPORT on 5 September.

“And I don’t mean just on the field, I mean for the owners who will ultimately look to sell this football club at the best price, so I think it’s no secret that Tottenham is for sale.

“It’s no secret because the Lewis family probably wants to extract maximum value.”

Could Spurs follow in footsteps of Premier League big spenders?

If a takeover does occur at Tottenham, then they will be in a strong position to spend substantially.

Many will reference Newcastle United and their inability to spend as much as they want, but that comes down to revenue.

Spurs generate the ninth-highest revenue in European football at just over £533million, according to the Deloitte Football Money League.

Indeed, the North London club generates approximately £210.4m more than Newcastle, who sit 15th on the list.

Crucially, the Lilywhites are ranked above Chelsea, so if you were to compare the two, then it would suggest that Tottenham would be able to spend more than their rivals.

Of course, the sale of Son Heung-min to LAFC will affect finances, but the cost of that may not be known for some time.

For now, Spurs are in a period of transition, but all eyes will be on what happens now that Levy is gone.

Tottenham could be in for another major change as the Lilywhites’ future continues to look uncertain.

There has been little time to come up for air as Spurs push through one of their most hectic periods in the last 20 years.

Daniel Levy stepped down as Tottenham chairman after almost 25 years at the helm. The news has produced mixed reactions from the footballing world, with Tottenham fans glad of Levy’s departure while Arsenal supporters are bitter.

It has been suggested that Levy’s exit could cause financial hardship at Tottenham. While he was rarely praised for his sporting decisions, his business affairs at the North London club were excellent.

But the former Spurs chairman’s leaving his role may have opened up new possibilities for the Lilywhites.

MORE SPURS STORIES

This article includes exclusive comments from Lilywhite Rose owner John Wenham.

Peter Charrington’s appointment could spark a Tottenham takeover

Tottenham named Peter Charrington as their new non-executive chairman after the departure of Levy.

Charrington is the former CEO of Citi Private Bank and currently works as a director at ENIC. It would not be too ambitious to imagine that Charrington’s financial background could be an advantage or his new position.

In turn, this could see Spurs make smarter decisions in the transfer window. However, Lilywhite Rose owner John Wenham – speaking exclusively to Tottenham News – believes his background suggests a sale could be on the cards.

“Massive change at the club,” Wenham said.

“Does that mean that a sale of the club is now up and coming? We look at Peter Charrington’s record and history working as an ex-banker involved in multiple mergers and acquisitions of companies over the years, and you do wonder if he’s now been brought in with that in mind. A sale by the Lewis family from America.

“I know his daughter, Vivian, has become increasingly in attendance at Tottenham’s home games. So you do wonder if that younger generation of the family now wants to push on and sell the club.”

Would new owners benefit Tottenham?

Joe Lewis seems to be committed to taking Tottenham into a new direction. This is clear from the Lilywhites’ movements in the recent summer market.

The last-minute transfer of Randal Kolo Muani to Tottenham and Xavi Simons seems like calls that Levy would have struggled to make. This suggests that the Lewis family had taken a more active role in the club before Levy’s departure was announced.

As such, a net spend of around £150m seems to have caution out the wind, which was a key principle Spurs abided by under Levy.

Thus, the Lewis family seems committed to bringing in top talent at Tottenham, which means that a takeover at the moment seems less beneficial.

Tottenham fans have been stunned since Daniel Levy left his role as Tottenham chairman.

Levy was removed as Tottenham chairman on Thursday after spending 25 years at the club.

The decision means that Levy will have no involvement with day-to-day affairs at Spurs, yet he is still a shareholder in ENIC.

Levy had been under fan scrutiny for years, and Tottenham have made the decision to gain more success both on and off the pitch.

It is still a shock for all those involved at Tottenham, with the club staff finding out the news in abrupt circumstances.

Tottenham staff shocked by email regarding Daniel Levy’s exit

An article by talkSPORT on 5 September reports that some staff were informed by a club email about the removal of Levy as executive chairman.

Peter Charrington, Levy’s replacement, is also said to have been involved in the decision.

Levy has overseen plenty at Spurs in the past 25 years, apart from the one thing Spurs fans crave most: a team that consistently wins trophies.

Having spent over £180m this summer, and been instrumental in Tottenham’s decision to hire Thomas Frank, Levy’s departure is a huge shock on all fronts.

With only two trophies won during his tenure, Levy’s exit is one that probably should have come sooner.

Tottenham sale could cost £3billion

Levy was already in the process of finding an investor, yet now it looks like a full sale of the club is likely.

The club is valued at over £3bn, with investors from USA and Saudi interested.

Amanda Staveley, who recently left Newcastle, has been linked with an making investments into Tottenham for over a year now, and that could be an option that the Lewis family look at.

The Lewis family will work with Charrington to ultimately decide whether Tottenham should be put on the market.

Many Spurs fans have not experienced a Levy-free Tottenham, and his exit means that all supporters can start to dream about the prospect of new ownership.

Brennan Johnson thrives in new Tottenham role after Thomas Frank rebrand - tottenhamhotspurnews.com
Description

Brennan Johnson is under added pressure at Tottenham this season after the stream of arrivals.

Johnson enjoyed two encouraging campaigns under Ange Postecoglou, demonstrating his threat in front of goal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

However, Spurs have since signed Mohammed Kudus as well as several other forwards, meaning he simply has to perform.

Although it is early days into the Premier League, the Wales international is already impressing under his new boss, Thomas Frank.

This article includes exclusive comments from Lilywhite Rose owner John Wenham.

Brennan Johnson praised for Tottenham impact under Thomas Frank

Kudus may have been seen as a Johnson upgrade, but Frank has been able to accommodate both within his side.

While naturally a right-winger, Johnson has started on the left for Spurs in all three of their Premier League games.

Now, Lilywhite Rose owner John Wenham – speaking exclusively to Tottenham News – has weighed in on his performances.

“Credit to him, he’s playing off the left, Mohammed Kudus has cut in and taken his natural position on the right,” Wenham said.

“He’s been rebranded to the left and two games in, scored two goals. Gary Neville said it, and Johnson is doing what he does. He scores goals, has a great knack for it.

“I mean, that finish against Man City was fantastic, first time powered in like that, coming off his unnatural side. So fair play for him, having fully carried on.”

Can Brennan Johnson keep place in Thomas Frank’s side?

While it will not be easy, if the 24-year-old carries on his fine form, then he could be undroppable.

Of course, with Xavi Simons and Randal Kolo Muani now in North London, Frank can mix up his attacking line when needed.

However, neither of them are natural wingers, so Johnson should be able to maintain his place for the foreseeable future.

With Tottenham fighting on all fronts, Frank will surely rotate his side depending on the competition.

However, for now, the Welshman must be one of the first names on the Dane’s teamsheet.

Tottenham may soon find out that when it comes to Daniel Levy you don’t know what you have until it’s gone.

Tottenham announced that Levy stepped down as chairman on September 4 after almost 25 years in the role.

This was portrayed as an amicable decision, but it was soon widely reported that the Lewis family were keen for a new beginning at Tottenham, and one where Levy played less of a role in the management of the North London club.

While Tottenham fans will rejoice in Levy’s departure and Arsenal fans will be hoping it’s all a bad dream, Levy may have been even more important to the running of Spurs than initially believed.

Tottenham most profitable Premier League club under Daniel Levy

Levy has always been meticulous about his finances at Spurs, often accused of putting too much emphasis on the business side of things as opposed to the footballing side.

MORE SPURS STORIES

This is best reflected in his reluctance to invest in ‘big-name’ transfers over the years. Instead, he has focused more on business ventures such as the commissioning and building of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The transfers of Mohammed Kudus and Xavi Simons to Tottenham had fans believing that he had turned over a new leaf. But it now appears that it was Joe Lewis, not Levy who taken Spurs in a different direction.

However, while the former Tottenham chairman may have played his cards close to his chest, his business ventures over the years seem to have done a lot of good for the North London club.

Tottenham were the most profitable Premier League club during the Levy era, according to Kieran Maguire via X on Thursday, 4 September.

With his expertise in business and eagle eye for making a profit, the Lewis family could grow to regret their decision to encourage him to step down.

Daniel Levy’s best moments at Tottenham

While the former Levy’s time as Tottenham chairman has come to an abrupt end after almost 25 years, he had some remarkable achievements during the period.

The first was the appointment of former Spurs legend Glenn Hoddle as manager. Hoddle replaced George Graham, who had led a poor tenure in North London.

While Hoddle struggled to win anything of significance at Tottenham, Levy was the strong hand needed to sack Graham, who most suspected was an Arsenal boy through and through.

Tottenham reached their first UEFA Champions League final during the 2018/19 season. While the Lilywhites went on to suffer a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool, it is still regarded as one of the great feats of the Levy era.

But probably Levy’s greatest achievement is the inauguration of the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and the revamp of Hotspur Way. The state-of-the-art facilities have not only aided Tottenham on the pitch, but the stadium has also helped the North London club to profit.

Therefore, while most will rejoice that Levy is no longer chairman, he pioneered some historic feats during his time.

How the Spanish press rated Tottenham star Pedro Porro in win over Bulgaria

How the Spanish press rated Tottenham star Pedro Porro in win over Bulgaria - tottenhamhotspurnews.com
Description

Pedro Porro has worked his way up to being an undisputed starter at Tottenham.

Porro showed Thomas Frank during pre-season why he should remain as the first name on the team sheet for the left-back position.

Djed Spence has since established himself at Tottenham as a key player for the present and future. But while he is comfortable on the right side, Spence has played second fiddle to Destiny Udogie, who is sidelined for Spurs due to injury.

This, in large part, stems from how Porro has performed for Tottenham these past couple of seasons. And it now seems that he’s continued his strong club form into the international break.

Pedro Porro solid for Spain against Bulgaria

While the Lilywhites’ defence has not been so strong in the past. The continued reliability of Porro, as well as the strong Tottenham trio of Joao Palhinha, Cristian Romero and Mikey van de Ven, is set to offer defensive stability this season.

MORE SPURS STORIES

The fullback has been praised for his reliability, and it seems the Spanish press picked up on it during Spain’s 3-0 win over Bulgaria.

His performance was hailed as a “solid” and “professional” performance by Sports Dunia on 4 September, who rated it a seven. The outlet added that the defender did not “put a foot wrong” before he was substituted for a “well-earned” rest.

Goal Spain also rated his performance a seven after he made a “crucial block” in the middle of the first half. This deflected a shot heading towards the goal onto the post. Other than that, Porro did not encounter any more problems and maintained a “threatening” presence in the opposition box.

Pedro Porro will have an important role under Thomas Frank

Now that Mohammed Kudus has arrived at Tottenham, Frank’s right side is easily his best and most threatening side.

Porro’s intrinsic desire to play the ball forwards helps in progression and allows Kudus to create better goalscoring opportunities.

Other than Wilson Odobert, Spurs lack natural left-wing options, which has minimised their attacking threat on the other flank. As such, Porro will need to work twice as hard to help faciliate Tottenham attacks.

Daniel Levy has made the shock decision to step down as Tottenham chairman sprouting chaos in North London.

Tottenham’s announcement that Levy has stepped down as chairman produced a mixed reaction from fans.

His time in North London was often characterised by supporters begging for his dismissal after several failed transfer attempts. Ironically, this transfer window was the best Spurs has seen in years.

Mohammed Kudus arriving at Tottenham for £55million, with Xavi Simons landing at Spurs for £51.8m is hardly something fans can turn their nose up at. However, like most things in life, all things come to an end and that rings true for Levy.

Lewis family remain committed to Tottenham

As reported by Lyall Thomas via X on Thursday, 4 September, the Lewis family remain committed to the long-term future of Tottenham and are not looking to sell their majority share.

MORE SPURS STORIES

This will come as a shock after it was suggested that a takeover bid at Tottenham would be encouraged if Levy had previously made it difficult.

With Tottenham widely known to be valued at over £3bn, finding suitors would be a tough ask. But as it stands, it seems that the Lewis family will remain as the majority shareholders of the North London club, with a potential takeover being downplayed for now.

What are the Lewis family’s shares at Tottenham?

Since December 2000, Tottenham have been owned by the ENIC Group, which includes Lewis and Levy.

As it stands, the Lewis family itself owns the majority share of around 70.6 per cent while Levy and his family own around 29.4 per cent. While Levy has stepped down as chair it is believed he and his family still own their stake in the club.

With Levy stepping down as Tottenham chairman, a new age has fallen on the North London club. Winning the UEFA Europa League with Ange Postecoglou has created a series of events where Spurs value winning above all.

Gareth Bale and £11.25m star – Daniel Levy’s best ever signings as Tottenham exit confirmed

Daniel Levy has stepped away from his role as Tottenham chairman after 25 years at the helm.

The Lilywhites’ chief has been an integral part of their development as a club in recent years, even if progress has not always been smooth in N17, and his departure will send shockwaves throughout the Premier League.

Levy oversaw the investment in the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and has played a vital role in developing Spurs into the superpower of world football that it has become.

He has always had a reputation as a scrupulous negotiator when conducting Spurs’ transfer business, and with that in mind, Tottenham News looks back on five of his best signings.

Gareth Bale

Tottenham developed Gareth Bale into one of the world’s best players during his time in North London, and his value skyrocketed with every passing campaign in the early 2010s.

MORE SPURS STORIES

Levy and Co. paid around £10million to sign Bale as a 17-year-old left-back in 2007, and watched on as he became one of the most electric wingers of his generation.

The Welshman struck 21 goals on his way to being named as the PFA’s Player of the Year in 2012/13, and also scooped the award for Young Player of the Year in the same campaign.

That resulted in a then-world-record £85m switch to Real Madrid, where the wideman won virtually everything that football has to offer.

For Levy to have plucked Bale out of the Championship and watched as he netted Spurs £75m of profit, he has to rank as his best ever signing.

Son Heung-min

Son Heung-min recently left Tottenham to join LAFC for a fee in the region of £20m, and his legacy is almost unmatched in the club’s modern era.

The South Korean international delivered 10 years of superb service to the Lilywhites, which saw him make over 450 appearances and score over 170 goals.

He cemented himself as a genuine Spurs legend after his move from Bayer Leverkusen in 2013, and captained the team for two seasons following Hugo Lloris’ departure.

When you then consider that Levy made almost all of his original £22m investment back an entire decade down the line, Son has to sit firmly among his best pieces of business.

Luka Modric

Luka Modric joined Tottenham from Dinamo Zagreb back in 2008, and went on to become a key cog in their side during his four-year stay in N17.

The Croatian was a supremely classy operator in the midfield, and one of the most technically gifted players to have pulled on a Spurs shirt in recent years.

He moved on to Real Madrid for a fee of around £30m in 2012, and went on to win the Ballon D’Or in 2018.

Modric was part of the same all-conquering Madrid team as Bale, and became one of the most decorated players of the modern era in the Spanish capital.

Spurs discovered him while he was playing in a little-known European league, and that goes down as a huge tick next to Levy’s name.

Jermain Defoe

Jermain Defoe enjoyed two goal-laden stints with Spurs that saw him become one of the most feared strikers in the Premier League.

He first joined for an initial fee of £6m in 2004, and became a key player during his first stint in North London, before moving on to join Portsmouth in 2008.

He returned to N17 in 2009 and went on to play another five years in the famous white shirt, lifting his final goal tally to 143 by the end of his time with Tottenham.

Now a pundit, the former frontman is the Lilywhites’ seventh-highest scorer of all time.

Jan Vertonghen

Perhaps the most unexpected name on this list, Jan Vertonghen, was a stalwart at the back for Tottenham across an eight-year stay.

He joined Spurs from Ajax for a fee of £11.25m in 2012, and was at the heart of several bright seasons for the club.

The Belgian formed an imperious partnership with his countryman Toby Alderweireld and was a key figure in Mauricio Pochettino’s team that defied the odds to reach the Champions League final in 2019.

He may not have been as exciting or technically gifted as some of the other players on this list, but for such little outlay, the centre-back rightly earns his place among Levy’s best-ever additions.

Djed Spence will be hoping to dedicate many more of his best years to Tottenham.

Spence has been Thomas Frank’s starting left-back with Destiny Udogie sidelined for Tottenham due to injury.

The fullback reached new heights at Spurs under Ange Postecoglou, becoming a UEFA Europa League winner with Tottenham during the 2024/25 season.

But it has not all been sunshine and rainbows for the left-back who underwent a series of loans when he first arrived at Tottenham. But through years of persistence and perseverance, Spence could now make history for England.

Djed Spence could become the first Muslim to play for the Three Lions

Soon after extending his contract with Tottenham, Spence earned his first senior call-up for England.

MORE SPURS STORIES

This feat is incredible given that Spence overcame hurdles at Tottenham after being sidelined by Antonio Conte.

But hard work and the determination to succeed pay off, and he could become the first Muslim to play for the England senior team during the September international break.

In an interview with The Guardian on Wednesday, 3 September, he said: “I did see something about that,

“It’s a blessing, it’s amazing. I was surprised, really, first ever. If I can do it, you can do it. It’s [important] not just for Muslim kids but for any child of any faith. Put your mind to something and you can do it, man.”

Tottenham players who made history with the national teams

Harry Kane departed Tottenham for Bayern Munich as a legend for the club, but is also one for his country.

The England captain made history on 23 March 2023 against Italy when he netted his 54th goal in 81 appearances, surpassing Wayne Rooney to become the record goalscorer for the Three Lions.

England’s top-five record goalscorers include:

Greaves is not only fifth on the record goalscorers list for England but also holds the record for the most hat-tricks for the Three Lions. He ended his career with six hat-tricks and Spurs’ second all-time top goalscorer behind Kane.

Meanwhile, Son Heung-min has more than 130 international caps for South Korea, which is the most of any Asian Tottenham player. But this still puts him behind Bader Al-Mutawa, who recorded 196 FIFA-recognised caps for Kuwait.

If Spence debuts for England during the September 2025 international break, he will join this elite group of Tottenham players who achieved legendary feats for their countries while at Spurs.
