Tottenham fans have been stunned since Daniel Levy left his role as Tottenham chairman.

Levy was removed as Tottenham chairman on Thursday after spending 25 years at the club.

The decision means that Levy will have no involvement with day-to-day affairs at Spurs, yet he is still a shareholder in ENIC.

Levy had been under fan scrutiny for years, and Tottenham have made the decision to gain more success both on and off the pitch.

It is still a shock for all those involved at Tottenham, with the club staff finding out the news in abrupt circumstances.

Tottenham staff shocked by email regarding Daniel Levy's exit

An article by talkSPORT on 5 September reports that some staff were informed by a club email about the removal of Levy as executive chairman.

Peter Charrington, Levy's replacement, is also said to have been involved in the decision.

Levy has overseen plenty at Spurs in the past 25 years, apart from the one thing Spurs fans crave most: a team that consistently wins trophies.

Having spent over £180m this summer, and been instrumental in Tottenham's decision to hire Thomas Frank, Levy's departure is a huge shock on all fronts.

With only two trophies won during his tenure, Levy's exit is one that probably should have come sooner.

Tottenham sale could cost £3billion

Levy was already in the process of finding an investor, yet now it looks like a full sale of the club is likely.

The club is valued at over £3bn, with investors from USA and Saudi interested.

Amanda Staveley, who recently left Newcastle, has been linked with an making investments into Tottenham for over a year now, and that could be an option that the Lewis family look at.

The Lewis family will work with Charrington to ultimately decide whether Tottenham should be put on the market.

Many Spurs fans have not experienced a Levy-free Tottenham, and his exit means that all supporters can start to dream about the prospect of new ownership.
