THOMAS: NO DOUBTING OWNERS

Spurs boss is impressed by Lewis family

- BY ALASDAIR GOLD

THOMAS FRANK believes Tottenham's owners are “120 percent committed” to the club after rejecting a third takeover approach in as many weeks.

The Lewis family own Spurs through the investment company ENIC and yesterday the club announced to the London Stock Exchange that they had “unequivocally rejected” an informal expression of interest from a consortium headed up by tech entrepreneur Brooklyn Earick.

The takeover would have reportedly involved a £3.3billion bid from a 12-strong group including NFL and NBA investors, with a further £1.2bn set aside as transfer funds.

A source close to the Lewis family said: “This unsolicited and unnecessary interest does nothing to change the family’s resolve and commitment to do whatever it takes to drive success on the pitch. The club is not for sale.”
