According to Alan Nixon at The Sun, Amanda Staveley could be set for a quick return to the Premier League scene with Spurs in her sights.
He reports that Staveley, who departed Newcastle in July after just under three years at the club, has been backed with “serious money” from the Middle East and would be looking to first secure a 25% stake in the club – which would equate to roughly £650m – before pursuing a full Middle Eastern takeover from ENIC.
The 51-year-old is no stranger to Middle Eastern investment in the Premier League, helping broker takeovers at Manchester City and Newcastle United in 2010 and 2021, with the financer playing a key role in bringing the Saudi PIF to St James’ Park.
Staveley and husband Mehrdad Ghodoussi remain popular figures on Tyneside, though it would create a slightly strange scenario should she be the one to help propel one of Newcastle’s Premier League rivals further up the table.
