Entrepreneur and TV celebrity Sir Alan Sugar has sold his remaining stake in FA
Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur to majority shareholder ENIC
International.

The remaining 12% stake owned by Sir Alan Sugar, who had the majority
stakeholding in Spurs and was club chairman for a decade until 2001, has been
sold to ENIC for £25m.

ENIC, whose managing director Daniel Levy is the club chairman, has now
increased its stakeholding from 54% to 66%.

Although City rules require ENIC to make an offer for the remaining 34% of
the club the group said it intended to maintain Spurs’ AIM listed status.

The deal values the club at £209.5m and the sale will go through on 2nd
July.
