Billionaire Joe Lewis is stepping back from his involvement at Tottenham.

Lewis has ceased to be “a person with significant control" of Tottenham Hotspur following what the club has described as a "reorganisation of the Lewis Family Trusts", which hold the shares in Spurs.

An update issued by Companies House revealed Lewis had ceased to be a person with significant control (PSC) of the club on October 5.

On the same day, Bryan Antoine Glinton, a Bahamas-based lawyer, and Katie Louise Booth were appointed as a PSC in Tottenham Hotspur Limited.

Glinton, whose LinkedIn page describes him as 'Partner at Glinton Sweeting O'Brien Chair, Private Client Group', is understood to be one of two officers of the Lewis family trusts which owns the shares in Spurs. The unnamed other officer has also become a new PSC in the club.

A Spurs spokesperson said: "Tottenham Hotspur Limited (the “Company") has filed changes to its register of persons with significant control (PSCs) following a reorganisation of the Lewis Family Trusts. The new PSCs of the Company are the officers of the family's discretionary trust."
