The staggering amount Daniel Levy earned during his Tottenham reign

During his time at the helm, Spurs developed a state-of-the-art training facility and built the 62,850-capacity Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, while establishing themselves as one of the Premier League’s biggest commercial operations.

However, Tottenham’s financial growth was not always matched by success on the pitch.

The club regularly competed in the top half of the Premier League and generated significant revenues, but struggled to turn that progress into major silverware for much of Levy’s reign.

That disconnect became a major source of frustration among supporters, particularly as Tottenham endured a lengthy trophy drought despite becoming a considerably stronger financial force.

The era did eventually end with a major piece of silverware, however, as Ange Postecoglou guided Spurs to Europa League glory and ended the club’s trophy drought despite their disappointing domestic campaign.

Levy’s departure therefore closed one of the most consequential and financially transformative periods in Tottenham’s modern history and the newly revealed £27 million exit package puts an extraordinary figure on the final stage of his Spurs career.
