After Tottenham Hotspur’s recent accounts dropped, some information about what Daniel Levy had earned at the club appears to have been revealed in the documents
Former Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy earned more than £12million in his final year at the club, according to club accounts. The former executive chairman was a divisive figure at the club, with many blaming the club’s woes on his actions in north London.
Levy, 64, left his position in September with Vinai Venkatesham taking over as CEO and sporting director Johan Lage overseeing football matters at the club. The pair will be desperately hoping their latest big decision, appointing Roberto De Zerbi as manager, will save the club from a previously unthinkable relegation.
While Spurs fans have been less than impressed by the new Tottenham backroom chiefs, there is still frustration with Levy’s reign in north London. Fans will have been reminded of his previous presence in the latest set of financial results up until June 30, 2025.

Within the reports, it states the highest paid director at the club, which is understood to be Levy at the time, earned £5.775m, representing an increase from £3.728m.
Moreover, it also states £6.661m was also paid “in respect of past director compensation for loss of office” which is also understood to have been paid before Levy left the club in September.

The financial results did have one financial boost, which was total revenue and other income increasing from £528.2m to £565.3m, representing a 7% jump. However, as the revenue creeped up so too did the club’s losses, as the club recorded a loss of £94.7m from £26.2m the previous year.
Furthermore, club debt has also increased from £772.5m to £831.2m. Spurs also state they had a net spend of £158.59m in the transfer window last summer.
Considering Tottenham are staring down the barrel of another season finishing in the bottom five, or maybe even below the dotted lines of relegation, these figures will not chime well with supporters.
De Zerbi has 11 days to ready his new players for his first Premier League match as Spurs manager. It could not be much harder as the club travel to the Stadium of Light to face Sunderland, who have been impressive at home in their first season back in the top flight.
His next two fixtures may also be make or break as they host Brighton and Hove Albion and then travel to take on rock bottom Wolverhampton Wanderers the following week.
