Tottenham Hotspur’s turbulent season has taken a dramatic turn, with former chairman Daniel Levy admitting he never imagined the club would be fighting relegation.
Speaking after receiving a CBE at Windsor Castle, Levy expressed disbelief at Spurs’ current situation, stating that during his 24-year tenure, a relegation battle was “not in a million years” something the club anticipated.
His comments come at a critical moment, with Tottenham sitting just two points above the Premier League drop zone and only two matches left to secure survival.
Despite the grim reality, Levy remains cautiously optimistic that the club will retain its top-flight status.
He described the feeling around the club as one of “emptiness” but emphasized his unwavering support, noting that attending Tottenham matches is “in his blood.”
The North London side’s struggles this season have been compounded by injuries and inconsistent performances.
