Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has vowed to not stand still in his ambition to drive further positive change in the area of the club\u2019s stadium.<\/p>\n
An in-depth analysis of Spurs\u2019 socio-economic impact from the 2021-22 season by law company EY has found the club now contribute around \u00a3900million of gross output to London\u2019s economy, generating an additional \u00a3478m of Growth Value Added (GVA) in London.<\/p>\n
A total of \u00a3296m of this GVA is for the borough of Haringey specifically, which is a vast increase on the \u00a3120m GVA per annum being generated in 2015 when the club called 36,284-seater White Hart Lane its home.<\/p>\n
This study, which follows a benchmark report by Tottenham in 2015, also estimated the growth of the club\u2019s socio-economic impact will reach \u00a3585m GVA by the 2026-27 season with around 4,300 jobs, in comparison to the 1,800 jobs it supported eight years ago.<\/p>\n
EY\u2019s report follows the news Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, which hosts non-football events all-year round, has been selected as one of the venues for Euro 2028.<\/p>\n
Spurs chairman Levy said: \u201cDelivering tangible benefits to those living on our doorstep has always been a driving factor since we initially undertook the stadium development project \u2013 four years on from the stadium\u2019s opening, this report clearly shows the difference it is making to people\u2019s lives and the economic prosperity it is bringing to our community.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will not stand still \u2013 with plans for further Visitor Attractions, notably F1 DRIVE-London, new homes, a new creative quarter and a hotel in the years to come, this area that we are so passionate about will continue to benefit from the club\u2019s investment and being home to one of the world\u2019s greatest football clubs and stadia.<\/p>\n
\u201cEveryone involved should be extremely proud of the findings of our latest socio-economic impact report.\u201d<\/p>\n
Football has the power to unite communities, and this report shows football clubs can play a major role in building a better and more prosperous London for everyone.<\/p>\n
Sadiq Khan, the Mayor of London, added: \u201cIt\u2019s fantastic to see the positive impact that the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has had in the local area \u2013 from job opportunities and skills learning to local small business investment.<\/p>\n
