Daniel Levy has divided Tottenham fans, but now he’s overseeing something special at Spurs

Tottenham

Daniel Levy had a life before becoming one of the most divisive chairmen in English football. Having graduated from Cambridge University, he first helped run his family business Mr Byrite, which was later rebranded Blue Inc and sold on in 2006.

He then made the majority of his money in the property market during a lucrative boom, before going into business with Joe Lewis and forming ENIC, who have been majority owners of Tottenham since 2001. An intensely secretive man, he’s very rarely been interviewed, preferring instead to do the majority of his communication through prepared written statements. All of it has contributed to his wider mystique.
