We are pleased to announce that our majority shareholder, the Lewis family trust, has, through ENIC Sports & Development Holdings Ltd (“ENIC”),injected £100 million of new capital into the Club.

This equity injection will further strengthen the Club’s financial position and equip the Club’s leadership team with additional resources to continue the focus on driving long-term sporting success. This additional capital is part of the Lewis family’s ongoing commitment to the Club and its future.

Peter Charrington, Non-Executive Chairman, Tottenham Hotspur, said: “As I stated a few weeks ago, our focus is on stability and empowering the management team to deliver on the Club’s ambitions. I know the Lewis family are also ambitious for the future. Today’s capital commitment reflects that ambition and I would like to thank them for their ongoing support. We will continue to do all we can to ensure that Vinai and his team are supported in the best way possible to take this Club forward.”

Cautiously good news I think. Coming so soon after the Dark Lord's departure it half makes you wonder if he was actively blocking new investment ?

Or that they didn’t want to pour cash in the club while he was running it, throwing good money after bad.

I think more to do with Joe Lewis wanted to make money and sit on his yacht and since he has taken a back seat the kids want to win.

Yeah, that makes a lot more sense although I suppose it would also beg the question that if they did think he wasn't worth the investment then why not get rid of him sooner ?

Former Tottenham Hotspur owner Joe Lewis is to receive an official pardon from US President Donald Trump, but will not be making a return to the club.

Lewis was fined £4m last year after pleading guilty to insider trading, having handed ownership of Tottenham to the Lewis Family Trust in 2022.

The Lewis family this year took full operational control of Tottenham, following the departure of former chairman Daniel Levy, but 88-year-old Joe will remain in retirement.

Tottenham will continue to be run by the next generation of the Lewis family – Joe’s daughter Vivienne, his son Charles and Nick Beucher, the husband of Vivienne’s daughter – along with non-executive chairman Peter Charrington and chief executive Vinai Venkatesham. Eric Hinson last month joined the club’s board as a non-executive director.

Lewis’s pardon is due to be published by the White House later on Thursday and the British billionaire said: “I am pleased all of this is now behind me, and I can enjoy retirement and watch as my family and extended family continue to build our businesses based on the quality and pursuit of excellence that has become our trademark.”

A source close to the Lewis family added: “Joe and the Lewis family are extremely grateful for this pardon and would like to thank President Trump for taking this action. Over his long business career, Joe has been a visionary, creating businesses across the world which multiple generations of his family are now taking forward. There is so much more to the Joe Lewis story than this one event.”

Vivienne has been a regular at games since Levy’s departure and the Lewis family last month confirmed the injection of £100m into Tottenham, as first revealed by Telegraph Sport. The family have vowed to prioritise sustained sporting success, with the club fifth in the Premier League table and 10th in the Champions League.

Lewis, who was born in London’s East End, was ranked 39th in the 2023 Sunday Times Rich List with an estimated worth of around £5bn. Before his sentencing in April last year, Lewis said that he learnt as he grew up in England during World War II how “precious life is” and had devoted himself to finding a cure for “horrendous diseases”.

Trump has issued a number of pardons since returning to the White House, some of which have provoked controversy and criticism.

The crimes were financial shenanigans to cover up all the mistresses. Right up Donnie's, er, alley.

The "Free Joe" statement didn't even try to justify the shit he got done for, but just said, yeah, well he's done some good stuff also.
