Tottenham get fresh takeover chance after Everton update with new Daniel Levy and MSP reality

MSP Sports Capital, an American-based company that were reportedly keen on making an offer for Tottenham earlier this year, have become a realistic potential new owner of the club once more.

After the sports private equity firm saw their deal to buy a stake in Everton fall through, with promises of a £150million investment into the club as well as a £100million loan, it has once more raised the prospect of the group looking to Spurs.

The Financial Times reported earlier this year that MSP chief Jahm Najafi was ready to make a £3billion ($3.75bn) bid for Tottenham with a consortium made up of other investors from the Middle East. MSP were said to be ready to fund 70% of the bid but it then became clear that they were closing in on an agreement with Everton.

The Toffees have had their own swirling future in recent months and years with owner Fahrad Moshiri losing popularity in Merseyside. MSP had been expected to help ease the pressure financially despite some big-name sales in the past few transfer windows including Richarlison to Tottenham.

However, it had since emerged that MSP's deal has collapsed with 777 Partners now in advanced talks with the club to become the new owners. The company, only formed in 2015, already have a large portfolio of football clubs under their umbrella with 'distressed' assets being targeted.

Everton look set to complete a deal with 777, who have Standard Liege, Red Star FC, Hertha Berlin, Genoa, Vasco da Gama and Melbourne Victory as part of their multi-club model. It comes after issues with MSP from the current lender Rights and Media Funding Limited. Although the deal is off, the £100million loan is set to remain.
