Born in Essex in 1962, Daniel Levy has become one of the most recognisable of the Premier League’s ever-changing cast of team owners.
Having been in the post of Tottenham Hotspur chairman since 2001, Levy is now the longest-serving Premier League chairman, and so naturally, his net worth is rather hefty.
How Much is Daniel Levy Worth?
According to the latest Sunday Times Rich List, Daniel Levy has a net worth of £650 million. With that Q1 2025/26 update, the Spurs chairman has seen his estimated net worth jump by £450 million over the last 12 months.
The surge in the figure for Daniel Levy’s net worth is a direct result of Tottenham Hotspur and the Premier League as a whole continuing to grow in value.
His stake in Spurs, beyond his position as chairman, comes via a 29.88 per cent stake in the controlling company, ENIC. In 2022, ENIC increased its ownership of the club to 86.91 per cent.
So, with the May 2025 Forbes football team valuations list placing Tottenham ninth overall at £2.6 billion with revenue of £527 million, it’d be fair to assume that Levy has benefited greatly from the club’s growth.
Since then, despite a season that saw Spurs drop out of favour often in football betting markets, the club has won the Europa League and brought in the very highly rated Thomas Frank to steer the team forward.
Business Career
Prior to taking the helm at Spurs, Daniel Levy graduated with a First Class Honours Degree from Sidney Sussex College in Cambridge. With his degree secured in 1985, he got involved in furthering the family business, Mr Byrite.
After that, Levy pivoted to investing in private equity. By 1995, he was the managing director of investment trust ENIC International Ltd, which he switched to having a focus on sports, entertainment, and media.
In the early 2000s, the firm was snapping up shares of several clubs, including Spurs, Rangers, AEK Athens, FC Basel, Vicenza, and Slavia Prague. Due to UEFA rules, all other clubs' shares have been sold to focus on Tottenham.
Tottenham Hotspur Owner
Riding the rise of the Premier League and helping the club to reach European competitions regularly, Levy’s stewardship has helped to make Spurs among the most valuable clubs in the world.
However, the ride hasn’t always been smooth. Several controversial choices have been made for managerial posts and in regards to the amount the club is willing to invest during transfer windows.
All of this is only made more prominent by the sums earned by major sales, such as Harry Kane to Bayern Munich (£86.4m), Gareth Bale to Real Madrid (£85.3m), and Dimitar Berbatov to Manchester United (£30.75m).
The ever-growing Daniel Levy net worth figure will only fuel the increasingly prominent perception of him as merely a cold businessman. So, it’s not unusual to see former players asked about Levy’s commitment to the team.
Still, this is very much a perception of missed potential as opposed to begrudging the club’s position. As the outrights in the sports betting markets show, Spurs look set to compete for European places again next season.
On top of this, the team and fans get to enjoy a state-of-the-art, £1.2 billion new stadium. The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is the largest in London and has become a popular landing spot for major events beyond football.
Family Life
When he’s not at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to watch his team perform, Levy is known to be somewhat camera-shy, opting to keep his private life out of the spotlight.
What we do know is that Levy is married to Tracy Dixon, his former personal assistant, and with her, he has four children.
One of their children, Josh Levy, is a non-executive director of the Mitchells & Butlers restaurant and pub management firm.
Still only 63-years-old at the time of writing, should he want to, Daniel Levy could have many years ahead to further grow Tottenham Hotspur and increase his net worth.
