After Liverpool making a U-turn on their decision to furlough a section of their non-playing staff, all eyes are now on Tottenham Hotspur who became the second Premier League club after Newcastle to make use of the government’s furlough scheme last week.
According to reports from The Athletic, Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has taken the decision to keep the club surviving and sustainable amid the global pandemic. Levy fears that the Premier League may not return until later this year or beyond, and that’s why he has taken such a drastic step.
Apart from the financial blow, Spurs could face further collateral damage.
