With Fenway Sports Group currently seeking investments in Liverpool, Premier League rivals Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly become the subject of the next PL takeover.
According to reports, Tottenham Hotspur may soon receive an offer of $3.75bn for a potential takeover.
The Iranian-American billionaire Jahm Najafi and his business, MSP Sports Capital, are working with a consortium of investors keen to purchase the London outfit, according to The Financial Times.

They are reportedly “weeks away from formally approaching” Daniel Levy, the football club’s head, and Joe Lewis, the owner of Spurs.
Certainly, the news coming out of north London will catch the attention of Liverpool and Fenway Sports Group (FSG) – and they’ll be watching how events pan out at Spurs.
It’s been more than three months since the Reds were put on the market, with FSG preferring a partial rather than a complete takeover.
A host of parties have been linked with Liverpool. There have been recent links from Qatar, while American company Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment are another mentioned who could be interested.

Various price tags have been mooted for Liverpool. They range from £2.7bn to £4bn plus.
The latter figure is something that Sir Martin Broughton, the Reds’ former chairman who helped with FSG’s purchase from Tom Hicks and George Gillett in 2010, believes is fanciful due to the club being based outside of London.
Should Tottenham be sold for the suggested $3.75bn – which is around £3.1bn – then it will give FSG another barometer in terms of a valutation of the Anfield outfit.
