Tottenham fans to foot the bill to keep Harry Kane as Daniel Levy 'plan' emerges

Tottenham fans will foot the bill to keep Harry Kane at the club for the final year of his contract as Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is set to raise the price of some match tickets by a staggering 20 per cent. Tottenham announced their intentions to freeze season ticket prices earlier this year in the midst of the cost of living crisis - but the same can’t be said for tickets which are purchased on a match-by-match basis.

Tottenham endured a miserable campaign last time out as they suffered a torrid run of form throughout the second half of the season and ended up finishing eighth in the Premier League table. They will be hoping to kick-on this time around after appointing Ange Postecoglou as their new manager over the summer.

Last season, Spurs charged £65 for an average seat at a Category A fixture but have increased that to £78 this time around, marking a meteoric rise of 20 per cent. And they have also bumped their home clash with Newcastle up from Category B to Category A to maximise their returns.

“The club knows this is something THST cannot support and we feel an increase of this magnitude is excessive. Our match tickets are already amongst the most expensive in the Premier League and fans should not have to dig further into their pockets when they are already seeing their living standards squeezed by the cost-of-living crisis.”
