Tottenham news round-up: Son and Harry Kane reunion, confidential Levy leak
Tottenham have been the subject of major developments behind the scenes after their 1-0 defeat against Manchester City at home on Wednesday.
An early goal from Erling Haaland saw Manchester City leave North London with all three points on 26 February as Tottenham failed to take advantage of the reigning champions’ poor run of form this season.
Things are not looking that great for Spurs off the pitch as well, with Ange Postecoglou’s side given more bad news, whether that be regarding a takeover or transfers.
Here, Tottenham News rounds up the latest news from North London on Thursday, 27 February.
Tottenham lined up for FA trouble after scenes v Manchester City
The game between Tottenham and Manchester City had a controversial end as Haaland had another goal disallowed for handball by Jarred Gillet.
Son Heung-min was meanwhile spotted arguing with the referee after full-time, which came nine minutes into added time, while Djed Spence and Brennan Johnson also made their thoughts clear.
Therefore, Keith Hackett has tipped Gillet to report Son to the FA in his account of the game.
Talking exclusively to Tottenham News, the former Premier League referee hit out at the Tottenham captain for complaining about the amount of added time and expressed his disappointment at Gillet not booking him.
Son lined up for Harry Kane reunion
Son remains the topic of discussion as he is linked with a reunion with Harry Kane at Bayern Munich.
The South Korea international ‘fits perfectly’ with the player profile Bayern are looking at ahead of the summer transfer window, according to Fichajes (26 February).
| Matches | Minutes | Team | Joint Goal Participation | PPG |
| 298 | 20,315′ | Tottenham | 54 | 1.78 |
Son is expected to make a decision regarding his future in the coming weeks as the opportunity to return to the Bundesliga and win silverware awaits.
This comes amid claims from The Times that Spurs want to keep the 32-year-old beyond his contract in 2026 and persuade him to stay with them until his retirement.
Daniel Levy subject of ‘confidential information’ leak
There has been a lot of talk about a takeover at Tottenham in recent days, with Bloomberg (26 February) shedding light on how Daniel Levy has derailed several attempts in recent times.
Spurs shareholders have been discussing ‘confidential information’ and it has emerged that the chairman’s demands have prevented talks with potential buyers not progressing further.
Apart from high valuations, Levy also desires to remain a significant investor and retain control over sporting decisions.
Those demands are said to have turned investors away from negotiations.
