Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy called “fat bald Jew” following Harry Kane transfer
The Chairman of Tottenham Hotspur Football Club has faced antisemitic abuse online over the impending transfer of a key player.
Daniel Levy has been the target of antisemitic posts online following the negotiation over Tottenham’s Harry Kane with FC Bayern Munich.
On X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, users have said that “Levy is such a Jew,” and “Daniel Levy what a Jew.”
Yet another user said “Daniel Levy is the worst owner ever, just f***in move on and accept the current conditions you fat bald jew [sic].”
Other users wrote “This is the Jew in Levy coming out,” and “Levy my friend this is prime Jew.”
A post on a Bayern Munich fan account read: “Kane wants to join us. We would never sent the bid to that Jew had Kane not cleared to Bayern bosses that he wants to join…even [football journalists] Plettenberg and Fabrizio have confirmed that personal terms are clear. It’s just Levy being a p**** now [sic].”
One user reported on X that they had experienced similar rhetoric from a customer who described Mr Levy as a “Jew boy”.
Campaign Against Antisemitism continues to report on and act against instances of anti-Jewish racism in all sports.
