Sheikh Jassim could turn his attention towards sensationally buying Tottenham after his Man United takeover bid collapsed.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is the view of finance expert Kieran Maguire, who spoke exclusively to Football Insider <\/strong>about the chances of Qatar bidding for Tottenham.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jassim withdrew from the Man United bidding process after the Glazers rejected his latest offer of over \u00a35billion for the club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sir Jim Ratcliffe is now the favourite to complete a deal for the Manchester giants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As reported by The Standard<\/a>, Spurs chairman Daniel Levy said back in September that the North London club would consider any \u201cserious propositions\u201d to buy the club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maguire believes that Tottenham are an ‘incredibly attractive’ club and will be on the radar of Jassim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Given the ongoing uncertainties with regards to Joe Lewis, I think it is fair to say that Spurs are in play for mergers and acquisitions<\/em>,” Maguire told Football Insider’s <\/strong>Sean Fisher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It\u2019s what we normally refer to as soft interest – there\u2019s not a \u2018for sale\u2019 sign at the club, but potential bidders would be invited in.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I think people are putting two and two together with regards to Sheikh Jassim.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I suspect his team are still licking their wounds after what happened at Manchester United.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“They do feel very let down, and they’ll also be aware of Daniel Levy’s reputation as a tough negotiator and therefore that might make them wary of going down the same route.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“So I wouldn’t expect a quick involvement, but Spurs are an incredibly attractive club.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Tottenham\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

“They’ve got the best stadium in the country, one of the best coaches in the country and they\u2019re playing fantastic football.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“They’re in London, the commercialisation of the club is accelerating and all of those are positives for potential bidders.<\/em>“<\/p>\n\n\n\n
