Tottenham chairman Levy to give Pochettino increased backing in silverware bid

Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is ready to give manager Mauricio Pochettino increased backing in the transfer market as the club strives for silverware. Fresh from reaching the Champions League final and moving into their stunning new home, Spurs are looking to accelerate improvements on the field as they enter a new era. Their rise has been underlined by their extended sponsorship deal with AIA, which PA understands to be worth in excess of £40million per season until the end of 2026/27. We are delighted to announce an agreement with @AIAGroup_Press, one of the world’s leading life insurers, to extend their long-standing Official Partnership until the end of the 2026/2027 season. — Tottenham Hotspur (@SpursOfficial) July 25, 2019 The new and improved agreement was announced in Shanghai, where Levy vowed to keep spending after completing their stadium and training ground projects. “We have embarked in recent years on two major capital projects, which I think in the long term will be of great benefit to the club,” Levy said. “We will now continue wherever we can to improve the team. “Now it’s (time) to continue to find ways to not only improve the commercial aspects of the club but also the football and continue to be a success.” View this post on Instagram 📸 A Shanghai selfie! 🏙 #SpursTour2019 #COYS A post shared by Tottenham Hotspur (@spursofficial) on Jul 25, 2019 at 12: 14am PDT Spurs’ sponsorship deal with AIA is thought to be third biggest deal in the Premier League after Manchester City and United. Asked if being on similar terms brings pressure to signings, Levy said: “If I’m honest, we don’t feel the pressure. Our view is wherever we can, we will improve the team. “We have embarked in recent years on two very major capital projects, which I think in the long term will be of great benefit to the club. We will continue wherever we can to improve the team.” Tanguy Ndombele has arrived from Lyon this summer in a club-record deal, while Paulo Dybala and Giovani Lo Celso are reported targets for a club that have become a top-six force.
