Under one model being considered by the investors, Levy would be offered a management contract to run the club, which would remain in place even if Enic, that owns 86.91% of Tottenham, becomes a minority shareholder.
In 2016 Tottenham entered negotiations with QSI about a naming-rights deal for the new stadium, and two years ago QSI approached the club about a minority investment.
Levy has been the most influential figure at Tottenham since 2001, when Enic bought 29.9% of the club from Alan Sugar before gaining full control six years later.
Under Levy’s leadership Spurs’s financial position has been transformed, with the 63-year-old masterminding the building of their new stadium and establishing Tottenham as one of the richest clubs in Europe with an annual income of more than £500m.
Tottenham have been open about the fact they are seeking outside investment, with Levy saying last year that the club needed “a significant increase in its equity base”.
