Daniel Levy, the former executive chair of Tottenham Hotspur, received £5.76m in remuneration for the 2024-25 season, more than the combined salaries of all 64 players and staff at the club's women's team, according to the club's latest financial accounts. The figure, a 54% increase on his previous year's pay, made Levy the highest-paid director in the Premier League last season, according to football finance expert Kieran Maguire.
The women's team's total salaries and bonuses amounted to £3.73m, with each employee earning an average of £58,000 per annum. Including social security and pension costs, the total wage bill for Tottenham Women stood at £4.3m. This was lower than several other Women's Super League clubs, including Brighton (£5m), Manchester United (£5.88m) and Arsenal (£11.3m), but higher than Liverpool's (£3.12m).
Tottenham Women made a loss after tax of £2.83m, similar to the previous year's £2.73m loss, despite commercial income more than doubling from £1.46m to £3.34m. Broadcast revenue remained unchanged at £267,414, while prize money fell by around £600,000.
The team finished 11th in the WSL last season, but has shown significant improvement this term, currently sitting fifth with three games remaining. The club is believed to have increased investment in the women's team this season, which is expected to be reflected in the 2025-26 accounts. Women's football has been repositioned as a strategic priority at Tottenham following an internal review.
