Tottenham Hotspur have hit back at Manchester United co-owners Ineos in the latest episode of the pair’s court battle.
Spurs are suing the petrochemicals firm after they exited from a sponsorship deal with the club and have now filed the latest tranche of papers at the High Court, in which they reject a subsequent attempt by Ineos to counter-sue.
Tottenham initially took legal action claiming Ineos, led by billionaire businessman Sir Jim Ratcliffe, had breached the terms of a £17m, five-year agreement which saw their Grenadier model named ‘official 4x4 partner’ of the club.
