Tottenham and INEOS Reach Out-of-Court Settlement in Sponsorship Dispute

The out-of-court deal closes a sponsorship dispute over alleged missed payments under the Grenadier partnership.

Overview

  • Sky Sports and The Telegraph reported that the case has been settled, with the payment sum undisclosed and accounts differing on the amount.
  • One Telegraph source indicated the figure was about half of the roughly £11m Tottenham pursued, while other outlets reported a higher total.
  • Tottenham’s claim cited a missed December 1 annual instalment of more than £5m and an earlier inflation-linked sum of around £500,000.
  • The club sought just over £11m covering missed payments, approximately £5.3m for the final contract year, and about £300,000 in interest.
  • INEOS counter-sued for more than £1m, alleging Spurs held Audi talks linked to Harry Kane’s 2023 move and asserting it exercised a contractual termination right in December 2024; Spurs terminated the deal in March 2025 and later sued.
