Tottenham's Daniel Levy hoping to stay at club for the 'long term'

Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy has told ESPN's Ashley Fox that he plans to stay at the club "very much for the long term," but admits he must consider any takeover bids once the new stadium is completed.

Joe Lewis -- the chairman of ENIC International Ltd., the investment vehicle that owns a majority 85.5 percent of Tottenham -- reportedly values the club at over £1 billion, and in September 2014 a potential takeover bid from Cain Hoy Enterprises was abandoned by the U.S. investment company.

Spurs hope to open their new £400 million stadium for the start of the 2018-19 season, while they are building a £5m player lodge next to their state-of-the-art training facility in Enfield, with ENIC, which bought a majority stake of 29.
