Daniel Levy meets with Sheikh

As per the Sheikh’s personal Instagram, Sheikh Saud bin Rashid Al Mualla recently met with the Spurs chairman in north London.

An image of the pair shaking hands was uploaded to the 52-year-old’s social media account showing the pair to be at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The Middle Eastern figure is the the deputy ruler of Umm Al Quwain and has been since 2004.

It is not clear as to why the pair were meeting in N17, however, it certainly makes for interesting viewing.

Tottenham takeover latest

There have been various reports linking Spurs with a potential takeover in recent years, none of which have led to anything.

One of the most recent ones was a suggestion Qatar Sports Investment were viewing Spurs as a potential Premier League suitor.

Meetings were held between Levy and Nasser Al-Khelaifi, but nothing came to fruition.

At a time when some clubs are being scrutinised by the rules for the amount of money they are spending in the transfer windows, Spurs are operating without issue.

Newcastle United have already come across issues spending their extreme wealth under their new ownership.

So it does beg the question of whether new owners may not provide as positive of a future as some may think.
