'Huge...' - Paratici set for boost in major potential Tottenham development in next five days

As per The Athletic, Spurs manager Antonio Conte has said that the north London club need to spend a “lot of money” if they are to compete for the Premier League title.

Plumley has claimed that Champions League qualification will come as a “huge” boost for Paratici, as we are now just five days away from discovering the fate of north London’s battle for fourth.

Speaking with Football Insider, he proclaimed: “They can spend under FFP.

“Financial performance has largely been good in recent years due to the way Levy has run the club like a business.

“But their revenue is still behind City, Chelsea, Liverpool and United. There’s a big gap there, both in the finances and on the pitch.

“We should stress that Champions League football would make a huge impact on spending. If they qualify, that could see them spend £100m to compete in that competition.

“If they don’t make it, there will also be a clamour for investment so they can make it next season. So you can see them spending that either way.”
